Cristiano Ronaldo delivered yet another dazzling performance, scoring his fourth hat trick of the Saudi Pro League season in Al Nassr’s dominant 6-0 victory over Al Wehda. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s electrifying display puts him within striking distance of Abderrazak Hamdallah’s league-record 34 goals, with four matches remaining.
Ronaldo wasted no time showcasing his scoring prowess, pouncing on a poor clearance from goalkeeper Monir El Kajoui to open the floodgates in the fifth minute. Mere minutes later, he doubled Al Nassr’s lead with a powerful header off a pinpoint cross from Marcelo Brozovic.
The second half saw Ronaldo complete his hat trick with a clinical finish from just inside the box, a perfect display of his left foot, right foot, and heading ability. His relentless form has propelled him to 45 goals at the club level, his highest tally since his 2015-16 season with Real Madrid.
The rout continued, with fellow Portuguese star Otavio, Senegalese forward Sadio Mane, and Mohammed Al-Fatil all finding the back of the net for Al Nassr, sealing their seventh consecutive win.
The victory keeps Al Nassr within reach of league-leaders Al Hilal, trailing by nine points as they chase their tenth Saudi Arabian championship title.
