Cristiano Ronaldo won his first silverware since 2021 as 10-men Al Nassr beat rivals Al-Hilal 2-1 in extra time to lift the Arab Club Champions Cup on August 12.

The 5-time Ballon D'or winner scored helped his side comeback from a goal behind to win in extra time with a brace on the night.

Brazilian winger Michael headed Al-Hilal into the lead after which Ronaldo had equalised to take the game to extra time. 

Ronaldo then went on and scored the winner in the 98th minute to get himself a well-earned piece of silverware, his first since 2021.
