Al Nassr opened the 2025-26 Saudi Pro League season on the road against Al Taawoun at King Abdullah Sport City Stadium on Friday. Cristiano Ronaldo wasted no time making headlines, converting from the penalty spot to record the 940th goal of his career.
João Félix had already put Al Nassr ahead in the 7th minute, capping his league debut in style. The Portuguese forward finished first-time with his left foot after a precise cross from Angelo on the left wing. Soon after, it was Ronaldo’s turn to get on the scoresheet.
Following a handball in the box by Waleed Al Ahmad, Al Nassr were awarded a penalty. Ronaldo stepped up with confidence, sending the goalkeeper the wrong way as he slotted the ball into the corner, marking his first goal of the new SPL campaign.
