Cristiano Ronaldo helped Al-Nassr keep its Saudi Arabian title hopes alive by scoring the winning goal in a 3-2 victory over Al-Shabab. Cristian Guanca scored twice for Al-Shabab before Anderson Talisca pulled a goal back for Al-Nassr just before the break.

Six minutes after the restart, they were level as Abdulrahman Ghareeb made it 2-2. Ronaldo then put his team ahead in style, sprinting past two defenders to curl a shot into the top corner from the edge of the area.
