You'd imagine that they're not going to have loads of a possession.
So he's going to have to time his runs into the box,
try and get some long distance shots away, try to make things happen.
It's a side who will be hoping that Sadio Mane
doesn't produce his form here last season when he scored four of the nine
in that victory towards the end of the campaign.
Xhau Felix also back in the side tonight as well,
recently back amongst the goals after 13 without,
although his number is still very impressive
in his first season in the Roshan Saudi League.
And what about this guy, 23 and 23 at the age of 41?
The youngster, he'll never lose that appetite, Ronaldo, to score goals.
He's got service in the likes of Xhau Felix.
Behind him, he's got wide players in Sadio Mane and Kingsley Coman
that can assist if crosses are coming in.
Brozovic and Angelo midfield.
He's got a very talented team behind him, but he is still some player.
Decide the title.
Al-Ahli at home, Al-Khadsir away, Al-Halal at home.
The three teams that beat them earlier this season.
Yeah, that's it.
I would say it dawns on him, but I say that very loosely
with the games that you want to play in.
But that's going to be the couple of weeks where it might decide the title
for Al-Nasr that they come through unscathed, that they win all three.
They're going to be champions.
So navigate this one first tonight, put three points on the board,
make it 14 on the spin and go into them games super confident.
Well, he remains Mr.
Popular and there's going to be produce some big results from somewhere.
They're on their third coach of the season.
Today's is our referee.
Abdullah Al-Kerbush is the fourth official.
Ronaldo alongside Hussein Al-Zabdan.
But they've enjoyed the victory, as have Al-Khaloud, away to Al-Town.
It's finished 2-1 there.
Guga, the young Brazilian with the winner.
Have to track back as well and offer the support
for Al-Zabdani, which he's doing now.
Ronaldo, the free kick has been given.
Yeah, he did.
I actually thought Ronaldo took a dive, but you see it again.
He catches at the top end of the studs there, right across the laces.
Previous year, certainly.
And he'll try his luck here, but it's straight into the wall.
Angelo, it's a good ball to find Ronaldo.
Mane, going to the near post and flags it up for offside again.
Yeah, I think it was Ronaldo who didn't get back up.
Actually, Ronaldo is well onside.
Must have been Sadio Mane.
Yeah, he went a bit early.
Dean ties.
We'll still be aware that Al-Hilal are not going away.
All they can do, Al-Hilal, is put the pressure on Al-Nasr.
Mane, it's a good ball.
Jaya, three-way for the cross, but it doesn't find any of them.
Fabu Shao.
Now Brozovic.
Xiao Felix.
Now Koeman.
Samuel does well together.
Yeah, good goalkeeper, Nani.
Leaping, but beaten to it.
Al-Hamry and Koeman now can burst forward.
Here is Ronaldo, onto the right foot, but it's blocked.
Now Koeman.
And Gunther was in the way.
I'd be quite pleased, in terms of the first 15 minutes in the game.
Not too stressful.
Given up a bit of possession, yes, but that's to be expected.
Koeman.
Fabu Shao.
Ronaldo on the burst!
And that is typical Ronaldo.
That injection of pace.
And very few teams can live with him at any level,
when he's bearing down on goal like that.
He's been out so many times before, Ronaldo.
It's a lovely burst into the box.
He was completely unmarked.
No-one really tracked him.
Midfield players didn't go back with him.
Centre-halves didn't take responsibility.
It was a lovely ball to find him just bursting through.
First touch to set himself, then very calm on the right foot there.
Just finding that left-hand corner as we're looking.
Knows exactly where he's finishing that one off, Ronaldo.
24 goals in 24 games in the Russian-Saudi League.
And that is career goal number 968.
Astonishing numbers.
And it's 98 in 101 games in the Russian-Saudi League now.
And they just didn't see him coming.
No, bizarre.
It was quite a simple move as well from Al Nasser's point of view,
but Al Abduh, the midfield runners, didn't track him.
Swamped by Al Nasser's supporters.
And, of course, they all come here to watch Cristiano Ronaldo.
Al-Amri.
Yaya.
High towards Ronaldo, but Samuel does well to deal with that.
Samuel.
Mane.
Angelo.
And here is Mane again.
Space inside for him again, and it takes a deflection off.
Al Zabdani into the near post.
Lovely play, lovely little one-two between Angelo and Sadio Mane.
Zabdani done really well tracking him back to put that block on.
Again, a passing shower in the Russian-Saudi League at this time of year,
but that's what's happening at the moment as the corner kick is flicked in.
And it's in at the near post, but the referee has disallowed it.
But handball, it was Al-Amri who got the touch,
and then it was bundled over the line.
Ronaldo just asking for a check.
Not sure if it struck the arm of Simo Kanye, it did.
Very good spot there by the referee.
That is a brilliant spot.
He's looking through so many bodies there, the referee.
That's a terrific spot.
To call that live, superb work from the ref.
Well, it was an accidental handball, but of course it's an attacking handball.
No, I hit his hand, for sure.
You hit his hand, yes.
Yeah, absolutely.
We're all second-guessing ourselves.
The referee called it spot-on, first time around.
Left wrist from Mohamed Simo Kanye.
Next Sunday.
Jaya.
Mane.
Cross nearly fell for Ronaldo, but Koeman nearly gets it.
Still has for the game.
He's taken on a big challenge in trying to turn Al Nasser into title winners.
And that's the seventh goal he's scored in meetings with Al Akdou.
Mane now, deep into the area.
João Félix.
Mane.
Driving into the box.
Centre-back had the assist of the season.
Jorge Azusa when his team's winning 1-0, they want to slow the tempo down.
I don't think he's a fan of that.
I think he wants his team to get the foot down and get more goals in the game.
Make it easy.
Make it comfortable.
He's so much better than everybody else.
João Félix.
Tricky footwork again.
Ronaldo!
Good save by Samuel.
No foul given.
Ronaldo.
And he's grounded out.
I think it's the landing.
I think he took a little nudge in the back that knocked him off balance.
That's the Ronaldo strike.
Good save from Samuel there.
Just a little nudge in the back.
I think he fell awkwardly.
The land on the base of his spine.
Which is never nice.
One or two Alnasser supporters make good use of the banners in this weather.
He's just saying to himself there, a little bit more whip.
That's what I should have done.
Two years ago.
Jair.
Ronaldo.
He's got Mane to his left.
Mane's cross.
He's got it as far as Ronaldo.
He hits this.
Big deflection.
And it loops onto the roof of the netting.
It's almost like he doesn't need to look.
He swept the ball out to him.
Mane's got the taste and the stand-up cross.
Chest, half-volley effort there from Ronaldo.
Again with the block.
He could have had a hat-trick already.
Mane.
Through the legs of Pedroza.
Again it's good defending.
Ronaldo.
Jair.
Brozovic.
Through towards Angelo.
Koeman waits in the centre.
Oh, and he just gets his feet.
Koeman.
Still turning away.
And then the ball back from Jalfe.
It's looking for Ronaldo, but it was...
With a fine opening goal for Alnasser.
But so far they've not been able to build on it.
Samuel has had a good night in goal for Alok Dude.
But at the moment, Alnasser are moving five points clear at half-time.
Alok Dude, nil.
Alnasser, one.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Alnasser re-emerge.
It's a drift of safety in the relegation zone.
On a weekend where all of their main...
And Alnasser get the second half.
Who has had a busy season so far.
We'll try and close down Mane here.
Headed towards goal by Koeman, off the post.
But it's in.
And Jalfe Alix makes it 2-0.
Right at the start of the second half.
An untidy goal for Alnasser, but they won't care about that.
Ah, Jorge Jesus got his wish.
He would have demanded a bright start in the second game,
but he wouldn't have imagined one minute in,
there'd be 2-0 up.
A nice ball from Ronaldo to Mane, running behind.
They do get a little bit fortunate.
Kingsley Koeman trying to finish it off,
and it lands to Jalfe Alix, who takes it quite comfortable
in the end to finish.
A nightmare start in the second half for Alok Dude.
And once again, Jalfe Alix is back amongst the goals.
That's his 16th of the season in the Russian-Saudi League.
And Ronaldo and Jalfe Alix both score against Alok Dude
for the second time this season.
And that could set them up for a big second half here.
And ball here, but now Koeman can bring it forward.
Angelo.
Jalfe Alix.
Koeman.
Jalfe Alix again.
And it's fisted clear by Angelo.
All the way across to Mane.
Mane finding Ronaldo, but it's all a bit too tight.
Could be caught out here on the counter-attack.
Angelo.
Jalfe Alix.
Koeman down the centre.
Ronaldo is quick to join.
Angelo's cross, and...
Brozovic finding Koeman.
Nalda makes the run towards the near post.
Claims, I think he was given a nudge by Varel,
but it's gathered by Samuel.
The other games for the Alfata coach,
they were challenging right at the top.
Mane.
Ronaldo, Mane.
Just behind Angelo, Pedroza.
Goul are able to clear.
Brozovic.
Ronaldo.
He on the end of an even bigger scoreline,
but here is Angelo.
And Ronaldo can burst into the area,
but he was closed down.
It was good defending by Gokhan Goul,
and it's a goal kick in the end.
For our dude,
Samuel, as you said.
Way back into this game.
He's headed towards goal, and just...
Trying to get the flight of it,
and also trying to guide it towards the right-hand corner.
You can see that angle, he is not far away.
Albanto was beaten there.
At the base of midfield.
Angelo has just pushed wide to the right.
He shouldn't be putting the yellow and blue ribbons on the trophy just yet.
Ronaldo, cleverly done by Mane.
Abushal, queuing up in the centre.
Abushal.
Still hoping they can get it.
Again, loads of yellow shirts in the box.
They do commit a lot of bodies forward.
Abushal will be disappointed with the delivery there, I think.
Left-sided player.
He's been another serial sub during this season.
Agonat.
Now Angelo.
Ronaldo.
Well, Samuel was left-standing there.
A stanchion at the side there, Ronaldo.
Got himself in a good position.
A nice cut-back to find him.
Just pinged off the stanchion.
Ronaldo.
Home fans as well who recognise
his impact on football in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
He will come off,
along with Angelo,
Al-Hamdan,
who has been a decent goal-scoring record recently.
As we head towards the conclusion of the season,
Al-Nasr are exactly where they want to be.
Full-time.
Al-Hakdoub, nil.
Al-Nasr, two.
Well done, captain.
Let's wait for Cristiano and then we'll start.
