Ronaldo’s Stunning Volley Lifts Al Nassr in Dramatic Comeback Win vs Al Riyadh
If you caught the Al Nassr vs Al Riyadh match this weekend, you witnessed greatness. Cristiano Ronaldo did it again—this time with a jaw-dropping volley that might just be the best goal of the year. With this masterstroke, he’s not only rescued his team from the jaws of defeat but also reached an astonishing milestone: 933 career goals . Let that sink in—933!
Al Nassr came into the match riding the high of their previous victory over Al Hilal, but it was clear from the start they weren’t in rhythm. The first half saw them on the back foot, struggling to control the ball and break down Al Riyadh’s defensive shape. Their opponents took full advantage of the situation and struck just before halftime with a brilliant long-range effort from Faiz Selemani. At that point, it looked like Al Nassr might just let valuable points slip through their fingers.
Then came the second half—and with it, Ronaldo.

Coach Stefano Pioli made some smart tactical tweaks, introducing fresh legs that instantly energized the side. Within minutes, Sadio Mané received a free kick inside the box, swiveled, and served up a perfect assist for Ronaldo, who calmly tapped it in. That equalizer lit a fire under the team—and the fans.
But the real moment of magic came a few minutes later. Mané, once again terrorizing the left flank, danced past his marker and whipped in a cross that took a slight deflection. The ball floated perfectly toward the edge of the box, and Ronaldo, with ice in his veins and fire in his boots, hit it first-time on the volley. No touch, no hesitation—just raw instinct and flawless technique. The ball rocketed past the keeper before he could blink. It was the kind of goal that makes you leap off your seat and shout, “Did you see that?!”
With that strike, not only did Ronaldo seal the win for Al Nassr, but he also reminded the world—yet again—why he’s called the GOAT. It was his second goal of the match, taking him to seven goals in his last five games . The man is simply unstoppable.
This victory takes Al Nassr up to 57 points in the Saudi Pro League standings, putting them just a single point behind second-place Al Hilal. While leaders Al Ittihad still hold a comfortable seven-point cushion, Al Nassr’s fight is far from over. With nine games to go, anything can happen.
For now, though, the story is all about Ronaldo—because what he did on that pitch wasn’t just football. It was art.
