🐐 HE'S BACK AND SCORING AT 41! 💛

The protest is over! 🤫 Cristiano Ronaldo scores just 18 minutes into his return! Watch Al Nassr beat Al Fateh 2-0 to keep the pressure on Al Hilal! 📺⚽

Cristiano Ronaldo is back, and he is still breaking records! Watch the full highlights as Al Nassr secured a crucial 2-0 away victory over Al Fateh at the Prince Abdullah Bin Jalawi Stadium to keep the pressure on Saudi Pro League leaders Al Hilal.

Returning to the starting lineup and reclaiming the captain's armband after a three-match absence, the Portuguese superstar wasted no time making his mark. In the 18th minute, Sadio Mané whipped a precise low cross into the box, and Cristiano Ronaldo [18'] clinically guided a first-time volley into the bottom corner. The strike marked his 18th league goal of the season, his 962nd career goal, and incredibly, his first goal since turning 41 years old.

Al Nassr dominated possession and had a second goal from Mohamed Simakan ruled out for offside by VAR. However, they finally put the game to bed late in the second half. Kingsley Coman delivered a pinpoint cross from the right flank, and substitute Ayman Yahya [78'] controlled it beautifully before firing a rocket into the top corner.

The victory moves Al Nassr to 52 points, breathing down the necks of Al Hilal (53 points) in a thrilling title race.

Final Score: Al Fateh 0-2 Al Nassr
Goalscorers: Cristiano Ronaldo (18'), Ayman Yahya (78')
