Ronaldo wins first league title in Saudi Arabia

Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice as Al Nassr cruised to a 4-1 victory over Damac on Thursday to secure the 2025/26 Saudi Pro League title on the final day of the season.

The Portuguese forward delivered a standout performance to help Al Nassr clinch their first league crown since 2019 and also claim his first major trophy in Saudi Arabia.

Al Nassr took control of the game early, with goals from Sadio Mané and Kingsley Coman giving the side a 2-0 advantage within the opening 51 minutes.

Ronaldo extended the lead in the 62nd minute with a well-taken free kick before adding his second goal of the night in the 80th minute to wrap up an emphatic win and seal the championship.
