His second goal came 10 minutes later, as he powered a header past the goalkeeper from a corner kick. Ronaldo completed his hat-trick in the second half, converting a penalty in the 53rd minute. The spot-kick was awarded after the Portuguese forward was fouled inside the area. Al-Nassr displayed a dominant performance throughout the match. Saudi international Sami Al-Najei added a fourth goal for the Riyadh-based club in the 89th minute, sealing a comprehensive 4-0 victory.

Al-Fateh, on the other hand, remains in 12th place with 14 points from the same number of games. Al-Nassr’s dominant display and Ronaldo’s hat-trick suggest that the Riyadh club will be a force to reckon with in the Saudi Pro League this season.
