Cristiano Ronaldo made a remarkable return from injury, netting two goals as Al Nassr triumphed 5-2 against Al Najma in the Saudi Pro League.

The Portuguese superstar, sidelined for nearly a month, made his comeback in spectacular fashion, having missed important games for both his club and the Portugal national team, including friendly matches against Mexico and the United States.

Entering the match as clear favorites, Al Nassr faced an early shock when Al Najma grabbed the lead just before halftime through Rakan Al Tulayhi. However, the home side quickly turned the tide in stoppage time with goals from Abdullah Al Hamdan and Sadio Mane.

Al Najma managed to level the score early in the second half with a goal from Felippe Cardoso, but the momentum shifted back to Al Nassr shortly after. Ronaldo restored their lead with a penalty in the 56th minute and followed it up with another goal in the 73rd minute, displaying his iconic finishing skills. Mane capped off the scoring with a goal in stoppage time.

This victory marks Al Nassr's 13th straight win in the league, solidifying their position at the top of the table with a total of 70 points, six points clear of second-placed Al Hilal, who will face Al Taawoun in their next match.

Ronaldo's prompt return and performance significantly bolsters Al Nassr's title ambitions, showcasing his enduring talent even at 41.
