Cristiano Ronaldo Scores + Reaches 960 Career Goals as Al-Nassr Narrowly Defeat Damac 2-1

On January 22, in the 17th round of the Saudi Pro League, Al-Nassr visited Damac. Just 5 minutes in, Coman’s cross found Ghaleb, who cleverly finished to give Al-Nassr a dream start, 1-0.

At the 10th minute, Ronaldo’s flying header was brilliantly saved, followed by several controversial moments, including penalty claims and disallowed goals. In the 50th minute, Al-Nassr struck again: Ghanem’s cross to Felix set up Ronaldo, who scored with a tight-angle shot, making it 2-0.

This goal marked Ronaldo’s 960th career goal, also breaking his own records for goals scored after age 30 (497) and club career goals (816). He continues to lead the Saudi league top scorer chart with 16 goals in 16 matches this season.

Damac pulled one back in the 68th minute through Harkas’ header, but Al-Nassr held on to win 2-1, securing their second consecutive league win and climbing back to second place on the table, trailing leaders Al-Hilal by 4 points.
