Cristiano Ronaldo Leads Al Nassr to AFC Victory

Cristiano Ronaldo demonstrated his enduring prowess by scoring twice in Al-Nassr's 3-1 victory over Al-Gharafa in the AFC Champions League Elite, bringing his career tally to 913 goals. The 39-year-old opened the scoring just after halftime and later secured his brace, propelling Al-Nassr to second place in their group with 13 points, needing just two more points to advance to the knockout stage. Despite missing several opportunities in the first half, Ronaldo's performance was pivotal in keeping Al-Nassr unbeaten in their last five matches. Angelo Gabriel also contributed, scoring the second goal before Ronaldo's second. Al-Gharafa's Joselu managed a consolation goal, but it was not enough to turn the tide as Al-Nassr aims for further success in the tournament. Ronaldo's continued scoring ability highlights his significance in what is expected to be one of his final professional seasons.
