Cristiano Ronaldo struck a spectacular long-range goal as Al-Nassr swept aside Al-Fateh 5–1 at Al-Awwal Park in Riyadh on Saturday night, extending the league leaders’ perfect start with five wins from five.

The 60th-minute strike—arrowed from the left edge of the area into the top corner—came moments after the Portuguese forward saw a penalty saved, drawing a roar from a packed home crowd and celebrity fans in attendance. 

Ronaldo’s goal pushes his club tally beyond the 800-goal landmark previously documented by statisticians earlier this year, underscoring his relentless scoring form deep into his fourth decade. 

Al-Nassr kept control throughout, with Sadio Mané central to their counter-attacking thrusts down the left and a succession of teammates adding to the scoreline as the hosts closed out a commanding victory. 

The result consolidates Al-Nassr’s grip on top spot in the Saudi Pro League. Club and venue names are spelled as officially stylised: Al-Nassr, Al-Fateh, and Al-Awwal Park. 

Elsewhere on the day’s card, Al-Hazem defeated Al-Okhdood 2–1.
