Cristiano Ronaldo scored an excellent header to help Al Nassr earn a 2-0 win away at Al Wehda on Tuesday.
The result also moves Al Nassr into third on the Saudi Pro League table, eight points behind Al Ittihad who have a game in hand.
Ronaldo breezed past a host of defenders in the 49th minute to open the scoring, before former Liverpool forward Sadio Mané added a penalty in the 100th minute to cement the victory.

Ronaldo’s goal also inches him closer to his dream of scoring 1000 career goals, having surpassed the 900 goal mark in September. Tuesday’s goal was the 925th of his career.
The 40-year-old also notched up 100 goal contributions in Saudi Arabia in January.
Al Nassr are back in action against Al Orobah on Friday.
