Ronaldo's Late Return to the Top: A Quirky Goal Sends Him Level with Felix in Saudi Pro League

Match overview

The Portuguese icon Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of Al Nassr, continued his superb form by scoring again as Al Ettifaq were defeated tonight in the 12th round on a night of high drama in the Roshen Saudi Pro League.

Ronaldo had headed the league's top-scorer list before the match with 12 goals, level with his countryman and teammate Joao Felix.

Key moments

Felix broke the deadlock by scoring the opening goal for the World in the 47th minute from inside the box after a precise finish.

In the 67th minute, he nearly added a second with a powerful shot, but before it could reach the goal, it struck Ronaldo's back, redirecting into the net.

With that goal, Ronaldo returned to the Roshen Pro League's top-scorer throne, level with Felix on 13 goals apiece, and the title race remains intensely open.

Punchline: If Ronaldo keeps scoring at this rate, his trophy cabinet will need a bigger house.

Punchline 2: And Felix? He'll start charging fans for autographs—goals like these deserve premium pricing.
