Ronaldo received the ball in the box 74 minutes into the match and with a merciless shot sent it into the back of the net for his 26th goal of the season.

Other star Sadio Mane was also on the scoresheet having not scored since September.

It is a vital win for Al-Nassr, who aim to lift the trophy for the first time since 1990 and they are firm favorites to do so.

Should they achieve that it will be Ronaldo’s second piece of silverware since arriving in Saudi Arabia.
