Al-Nassr’s first game against Al-Raed ended in disappointment for Al-Nassr as they settled for a 1-1 draw. Ronaldo got the opening goal of the game for Al-Nassr in the 34th minute but they were pegged in the 49th and all efforts to find the net proved abortive. However, they bounced back to winning ways with a sensational 1-4 victory agaiไnst Al-Feiha in their second league game with Ronaldo also getting on the scoresheet.
