Al-Nassr Secures 13th Straight Saudi Pro League Win With Ronaldo On Targetnewsline24

Al-Nassr strengthened control of the Saudi Pro League title race with a 2-0 win over Al-Okhdood, moving five points clear at the top. Goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Joao Felix decided the match, while the victory also delivered a club-record 13th successive league success for Jorge Jesus’ team.

The visitors’ performance kept their dominant run on track, especially away from home, where they have now won eight straight league fixtures. Al-Okhdood again struggled against Al-Nassr, who have beaten the same opponent in all six Saudi Pro League meetings, underlining a one-sided record between the two clubs.

Ronaldo opened the scoring after 15 minutes, collecting a pass from Nawaf Bu Washl in stride before calmly finishing past goalkeeper Samuel Portugal. Al-Nassr almost struck again on 22 minutes when the ball crossed the line off Mohamed Simakan, but the defender was penalised for handball after the rebound.

Before the interval, Kingsley Coman went close with a long-range attempt that drifted just wide, while Ronaldo saw a sweeping strike kept out. Early in the second half, Sadio Mane’s deflected cross reached Coman, whose looping header hit the post, and Felix volleyed in the rebound to double the advantage.

Ronaldo threatened a second goal with another effort that missed the target by a small margin, before being substituted in the 81st minute. The two-goal lead stayed safe, ensuring Al-Nassr’s 2-0 success and extending Jesus’ perfect record against Al-Okhdood in the Saudi Pro League to six wins from six.

Al-Nassr also matched their best run of consecutive away league victories, with eight straight wins on the road. Al-Okhdood joined Al-Shoalah as the only sides Al-Nassr have beaten in their first six Saudi Pro League meetings. Jesus’ teams have still not conceded a league goal against Al-Okhdood.

The result keeps Al-Nassr clear at the top of the Saudi Pro League and highlights sustained consistency across home and away fixtures. With Ronaldo scoring again, Felix adding support, and Jesus’ defensive record intact against Al-Okhdood, the team’s position in the title race remains strong heading into the next matches.
