THE GOSSIP: Saudi Pro League has had a massive boost ever since the arrival of the five-time Ballon d'Or winner at Al-Nassr with big names looking to join the league. Neymar is touted to be the next big-name arrival who is said to be set to join Al-Nassr's rivals, Al-Hilal.

WHAT NEXT FOR RONALDO? After scoring twice, Ronaldo suffered an injury in extra-time that saw him get stretchered off. It is yet to be determined how strenuous the injury was and if the Portuguese star will miss Al-Nassr's Pro League opener.
