The Blue Duo—so named for their electric style and the colour of their club shirts—are poised for sporting immortality. Having navigated a gruelling domestic schedule and a cutthroat continental campaign, the pair now stand on the threshold of eternity, eyes fixed on the trophy that will cement their legacy. Their journey has been characterised by razor-sharp passing, relentless pressing, and a resolve that refuses to bend, even when the stakes are highest. Supporters, who have witnessed every surge and swoop, sense that the moment of coronation is near; the players feel it too, exchanging glances that need no words. In the quiet before the storm, staff and fans alike know that only one final push remains—a mere 90 minutes—before the Blue Duo trade their mortal toil for the permanent glow of greatness.
Cristiano Ronaldo got on the scoresheet and Joao Felix was the star of the show as Al-Nassr earnt a fourth straight Saudi Pro League victory in a 3-0 win at Al-Kholood. The win puts Jorge Jesus' side just three points off leaders Al-Hilal and saw Portuguese duo Ronaldo and Felix at the centre of things, as the 40-year-old opened the scoring from close range before Mohamed Simakan headed home a Felix corner and Kingsley Coman struck from the spot to make the result safe.
Al-Nassr managed to keep their 100% Saudi Pro League record this season after beating Al-Kholood 2-0 at Al-Awwal Park with Sadio Mane and Inigo Martinez getting on the scoresheet. Cristiano Ronaldo failed to impress yet again for Faris Najd as he missed an open goal. Regardless, Al-Nassr managed to make it two wins from two.
