In the third round of the Saudi Pro League, Al-Nassr faced Al-Riyadh.

Star player Cristiano Ronaldo returned to the starting lineup after missing the AFC Champions League match against Istiklol from Tajikistan. Previously, Al-Nassr won that match 5-0, and on September 20, they scored another five goals against Al-Riyadh.

Ronaldo scored in the first half, finishing a pass from João Félix, and added another goal in the second half with an assist from Kingsley Coman, leading to a 5-1 win for Al-Nassr. This season, Cristiano has four goals in five matches.
