Cristiano Ronaldo bounced back from Saudi Super Cup disappointment by scoring in Al Nassr’s Saudi Pro League opener against Al Taawoun.
Jorge Jesus’ men, making several changes to the lineup, started the new campaign determined to set the tone.
Despite their earlier setback to Al Ahli, Al Nassr launched their league season with renewed confidence.
Joao Felix quickly put them in the lead against Al Taawoun in their first league game.
Cristiano Ronaldo then elevated the team’s performance by scoring their second goal.
Kingsley Coman initiated the decisive move from the right flank.
The Frenchman found Nawaf Boushal, who sent a cross into the box, leading to a handball by an Al Taawoun player.
This awarded Al Nassr a penalty, and Cristiano Ronaldo stepped up without hesitation, skillfully beating goalkeeper Abdulquddus Atiah.

This approach has made Al Nassr physically superior, with the defense, guided by Mohamed Simakan, playing a crucial role.
Additionally, Angelo shines in distributing the ball from midfield, working seamlessly alongside Marcelo Brozovic.
Joao Felix has thrived under the new leadership of head coach Jorge Jesus.
With Cristiano Ronaldo commanding attention up front, opposing defenses often leave gaps that the young Portuguese star exploits brilliantly, as evidenced by his impressive hattrick.
Meanwhile, Kingsley Coman’s dribbling prowess has made him a key contributor, consistently generating opportunities for his team.
