Earlier, Ronaldo stated that he wants to retire at Al-Nassr, which is good news for the Saudi club.
"I don't know if I will retire soon, in two or three years... but probably I will retire here at Al-Nassr. I’m very happy at this club, I feel good in this country too. I’m happy to play in Saudi Arabia and I want to continue,” Cristiano told NOW.
Talisca scored a brace for Al-Nassr against Al-Feiha and Brozovic contributed with a goal helping the team to secure their first win in this season.
