The 38-year-old Portuguese brought the Arab Champions Cup trophy to his Al Nassr side, scoring both goals in a 2-1 success against Al Hilal in the final.<\/p>\n<p>The match was very tense, with Al Nassr receiving three red cards. After a scoreless first half, Al Hilal took the lead with Michael&#8217;s goal after Malcom&#8217;s assist in the 51st minute.<\/p>\n<p>Twenty minutes later, Al Nassr were down to 10 men after Abdulaleh Al Amri&#8217;s red card. In the 74th minute, however, Ronaldo equalized after a pass from Al Ghanam.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after, nerves broke out and Nawaf Al-Bushail, who was on the bench for Al Nassr, received a straight red card.<\/p>\n<p>By the end of regular time, no more goals were scored and so the match went into extra time where Ronaldo showed his worth again, scoring 2:1 in the 98th minute, and 5 minutes later, Al Nassr coach Luis Castro was sent off.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">LOOK AT JOY OF CRISTIANO RONALDO \ud83e\udd79\u2764\ufe0f<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jgnososaqr\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/jgnososaqr<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 CristianoXtra (@CristianoXtra_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CristianoXtra_\/status\/1690420797108883456?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">August 12, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Despite being without their coach and with 10 men on the field, Ronaldo and his teammates held on to win their first trophy of the season.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\ud83d\udea8No matter the age, no matter where, Cristiano Ronaldo keeps winning<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/RQC4Z7eegv\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/RQC4Z7eegv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 VAR T\u00e1tico (@vartatico) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/vartatico\/status\/1690434010625761280?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">August 12, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cristiano Ronaldo stepped into the limelight once again, proving that when it comes to finals, he is always at a high level.
