Angelo Gabriel opened the scoring for Al Nassr before Ronaldo doubled their advantage. The forward fired a powerful shot past the goalkeeper in the 42nd minute to give the club a 2-0 lead. Alisher Odilov pulled one back for Neftchi in the 51st minute.
However, a red card for Ekromjon Alibaev in the 65th minute shifted the momentum. Anvarjon Gofurov then scored an own goal in the 78th minute, sealing a 3-1 victory for Al Nassr. Ronaldo’s strike takes his astonishing tally to 981 career goals, leaving him just 19 short of the historic 1,000 milestone.
