Al Nassr secured a 3-1 victory over Al Faysaly, with Cristiano Ronaldo playing a pivotal role. The Portuguese star scored his 982nd career goal, assisted by João Félix, and also had another goal disallowed by VAR and hit the post. Despite an early goal from Al Hamdan for Al Faysaly, and a later header from Theo Bongonda, Al Nassr maintained control. Angelo sealed the win for Al Nassr. This victory places Al Nassr in a tie for first place with Al Qadsiah, who are awaiting their match against Al Hilal. Al Nassr, coached by Postecoglou, is reportedly finding this season tougher than their 2025-26 championship-winning campaign under Jorge Jesus. Brendan Rodgers manages Al Qadsiah. Fernando Pacheco was the Al Faysaly goalkeeper.
