Two goals prove decisive as Al-Nassr defeats Al-Ittihad

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) — Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice as Al-Nassr beat league leaders Al-Ittihad 3-1 to move within three points of the summit of the Saudi Pro League on Thursday.

Ronaldo opened the scoring in the 31st minute from the penalty spot after he was brought down by Al-Ittihad goalkeeper Marcelo Grohe.

Al-Ittihad equalized nine minutes later through Abderrazak Hamdallah, but Ronaldo restored Al-Nassr’s lead just before halftime.

Anderson Talisca added a third for Al-Nassr in the 78th minute to seal the victory.

The win takes Al-Nassr to second place in the standings, three points behind Al-Ittihad, who have a game in hand.

Ronaldo has now scored four goals in three league games for Al-Nassr since joining the club from Manchester United in December.

The victory is a major boost for Al-Nassr’s title hopes, and it will also be a relief for manager Rudi Garcia, who was under pressure after a poor run of results.
