In a thrilling match against Egyptian opponents Zamalek, Al-Nassr's Cristiano Ronaldo showcased his trademark header to score a crucial equalizer in the dying minutes. The match, held at the King Fahd Stadium in Saudi Arabia, saw Zamalek take the lead with a penalty goal by forward Zizo.

However, with just 4 minutes remaining in regulation time, the 38-year-old Ronaldo rose to the occasion with an impressive leap in the six-yard box, heading the ball past goalkeeper Mohamed Sobhi to secure Al-Nassr's spot in the Arab Club Champions Cup quarterfinal.

This remarkable header marks Ronaldo's second goal in the tournament, following his breakthrough pre-season goal against the Tunisian club Al-Monastir in a commanding 4-1 victory on Monday.

The match against Al-Monastir also saw Ronaldo score in a similar fashion with his signature header.

Notably, the match against Zamalek also featured the debut of Ronaldo's newest teammate, Sadio Mane, who joins Al-Nassr from Bayern Munich after an abortive move to the Bundesliga in 2022.
