Saudi Pro League LIVE, Saturday Goal Rush: Ronaldo On The Scoresheet; Al-Nassr And Al-Hilal Leading At Half-Time

Al-Hilal are in the danger of dropping points tonight as they have been left frustrated by Al-Ittihad. The score line is locked at 1-1 and if Hilalis don't score another, Al-Nassr will reclaim top spot in the SPL standings.

Al-Nassr have put 4 past Al-Hazem as Cristiano Ronaldo scored his second of the night in the 79th minute, two minutes after Angelo Gabriel netted the 3rd for the Big Yellow.

Al-Ittihad have found the back of the net despite playing with 10 men against the league leaders Al-Hilal at the Kingdom Arena.

Al-Nassr Vs Al-Hazem, Al-Hilal Vs Al-Ittihad and Al-Khaleej Vs Neom SC has resumed after the half-time.

It's half-time across the three games in the Saudi Pro League.

Al-Nassr lead 2-0 against Al-Hazem. League leaders Al-Hilal took the lead in the 5th minute through Malcom and it remains 1-0 against Al-Ittihad.

The deadlock remains intact between Al-Khaleej and Neom SC.

Al-Nassr will head into half-time with a 2-0 lead against Al-Hazem. 17 minutes after Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring, Kingsley Coman netted the second goal. 3 points surely incoming for the Big Yellow.

Al-Khaleej have also been reduced to 10 men as key midfielder Dimitrios Kourbelis was shown a straight red in the 15th minute, but the good news is that they haven't conceded a goal yet.

At the Kingdon Arena in Riyadh, Al-Hilal took an early lead in the 5th minute through a goal from Malcolm but Al-Ittihad's main problem arised in the 9th minute when left-back Hassan Kadesh was shown a straight red by the referee for a harsh challenge.

Who else but Cristiano Ronaldo to open the scoring for Al-Nassr in this crucial encounter against 12th placed Al-Hazem. He receives the ball inside the box, uses his left foot to make room away from the defenders and launches a shot past the keeper from a tough angle.

He looked off-side initially but VAR cleared the goal and Ronaldo produced his trademark celebration.

All the 12:30AM kick-offs in the Saudi Pro League are underway across the country. Title contenders Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr are playing against different opponents on the same time, and whosever drop points today, will fall behind in the SPL 2025-26 title race.
