Ronaldo's Brace Powers Al-Nassr to a 4-0 Win Over Al-Hazm

The Portuguese icon Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of Al-Nassr, lit up the pitch again by scoring a brilliant brace as his side defeated Al-Hazm 4-0 in Round 23 of the Roshen Saudi Pro League.

Ronaldo struck in the 13th and 79th minutes, taking his season tally to 20 goals and placing him third in the league's top-scorer chart.

This is Ronaldo's first double in Roshen Pro League since the clash with Al-Akhdood on December 27, 2025, in Round 11.

Since then, the Portuguese superstar had not found the net for a brace in the league until this match against Al-Hazm.

It's also noted that this is his fourth brace of the season in Roshen Pro League, with previous braces against Al-Riyadh, Al-Fayha, Al-Akhdood and now Al-Hazm.

Punchline 1: If Ronaldo keeps scoring braces, defenders might need a calendar to track his two-goal outings. Punchline 2: The goalie has a new job title tonight—brace-breaker-in-chief, because Ronaldo just brought the two-goal encore to town.
