Ronaldo Shines with Goal and Assist in Al Nassr’s 4-1 Win Over Al-Feiha
Cristiano Ronaldo, the former goal-scoring sensation for Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus, has declared that this is just the start after his standout performance in Al Nassr’s 4-1 victory over Al-Feiha on Tuesday.
The 39-year-old forward made a significant impact in the match, contributing both a goal and an assist.
Ronaldo played a crucial role in the game, first assisting Talisca with the opening goal just five minutes into the match at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Buraydah.
He then scored himself, netting his first free-kick of the season during the tenth minute of stoppage time. This goal marked his 64th free-kick in his career for both club and country, bringing him just one goal away from equaling Lionel Messi’s record.
With his latest goal, Ronaldo reached a remarkable milestone, bringing his career total to 899 goals across all clubs and national teams.
His performance also included an additional assist, with Marcelo Brozovic scoring Al Nassr’s third goal in the 85th minute.
Despite a late goal from Al-Feiha, Talisca restored Al Nassr’s three-goal advantage with his second of the match in the final minutes of stoppage time.
Despite this impressive win, Ronaldo and his team are still two points behind the surprising league leaders, Al-Qadisiyah.
Following the match, Ronaldo took to X to rally his teammates and fans, declaring, “This is only the beginning! Let’s go @AlNassrFC!”
Ronaldo’s enthusiasm and leadership on and off the pitch continue to inspire his team as they aim for a successful season.

Thierry Henry Criticises Taking Dressing Room Issues to the Press
Former footballer Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s match following their loss to Atlético Madrid on October 13.
Speaking during a brief interview on CBS Sports, Henry criticised the practice of players or coaches expressing certain opinions through the media instead of addressing issues directly within the dressing room.
“I’m not a coach anymore, but I always say, whoever speaks like that, out. Keep that in the dressing room, it’s as simple as that,” Henry said on CBS Sports.
“That is the only way it can work. You have to say those things to a person’s face… going through the press, I am not really a fan of that.”

Walid Acherchour Backs Lamine Yamal to Win 2026 Ballon d’Or
French football pundit Walid Acherchour has named Lamine Yamal as his pick to win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, sparking reactions among football fans.
Acherchour’s choice came as a surprise to some fans, who expected him to support fellow Frenchman Kylian Mbappé instead.
Speaking about his prediction, Acherchour expressed confidence in Yamal’s chances of winning the prestigious individual award.
“For me, Lamine Yamal, he is going to get it [2026 Ballon d’Or]. For me, there’s no doubt anymore,” Acherchour said, as quoted by Actu Foot. That start to the season shows that in fact, he was injured during the World Cup. He was the best player in La Liga, and he won the World Cup.
“Even if, for me, in fact, he doesn’t have the Ballon d’Or unanimously because his World Cup was average, even being average, he won it with Spain. He won La Liga with Barça.”
