Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr returned to the top of the Saudi Pro League table in dramatic fashion by scoring three goals in injury time to beat Al Batin ...
The win moves Al Nassr two points clear of Al Ittihad after 19 games of the season. Al Nassr enjoyed masses of possession and peppered the Al Batin goal, but were frustrated. Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr returned to the top of the Saudi Pro League table in dramatic fashion on Friday by scoring three goals in injury time to beat Al Batin 3-1.
Al-Nassr left it incredibly late to turn around a game that saw them 1-0 down to bottom-placed Al-Batin, surprisingly winning the game in injury time.
Three points for Al-Nassr against the league's bottom side makes their next fixture against title rivals Al-Ittihad all the more tantalising. AND WHAT'S MORE: His claims for a penalty early in the second half were then waved away as Al-Nassr continued to probe, with Ronaldo struggling to carve out any clear chances. But despite the last-gasp comeback, there was no room on the score sheet for the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, who instead saw his best effort of the evening cleared off the line early on.

But Abdulrahman Ghareeb levelled in the 93rd minute, before Mohammed Al Fatil dramatically put Al Nassr ahead in the 12th minute of additional time. It was not for the want of trying though, as the five-time Ballon d'Or winner had a team-high seven shots, though he hit the target just once. The points were made safe two minutes later, as Ghareeb set up Mohammed Maran to add a third and move Al Nassr to the top of the table.

It appears Al Nassr can do no wrong when it comes to footballing matters, and that was demonstrated once again as Cristiano Ronaldo's side secured an ...
He recently smashed home his first hattrick in the Middle East during a 3-0 victory over Damac FC, a couple of weeks after hammering four goals past Al-Wehda. And if that was not already spectacular enough, Mohammed Maran popped up to secure the points in the 104th minute of the contest. Ex-Manchester United forward Ronaldo did not get onto the score sheet, but he showed plenty of brilliant flashes in the Middle East. However, Abdulrahman Ghareeb came to his side’s rescue with a very impressive curled finish in the 93rd minute. Al Nassr looked to have secured a fantastic point, but there was still plenty of time for more drama. For 92 minutes, Rudi Garcia’s team were heading towards their second loss of the season.
