This was Al Nassr’s ninth victory in 12 games and they are well on course to clinching the title.

At the start of the game, Ronaldo was seen on the stands alongside his personal manager Ricardo Regufe, who, accorrding to Daily Mail, negotiated his transfer to Al-Nassr.

On social media, Al Nassr shared a video of Cristiano Ronaldo watching his side’s second goal, which came from an odd assist from David Ospina.

Ospina played a long kick which found Talisca, who made no mistake superbly to seal the win.

In the footage, Ronaldo is seen riding an exercise bike as he claps for his new found strike partner.

Talisca’s brace places him on 12 goals so far this campaign, and it is unlikely Ronaldo will catch up to him, especially with the season concluding in May.

One thing Al Nassr fans will surely be looking forward to will be the trio partnership of Talisca, Ronaldo, and Cameroon international Vincent Aboubakar.

Cristiano’s girlfriend faces strict dress code in Saudi Arabia

Sports Brief also reported on how Cristiano Ronaldo’s partner Georgina Rodriguez will face a strict dress code as she begins life in Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia is a country that is not very friendly to women's rights and with strict dress codes.

Georgina Rodrigues is expected to change the way she dresses in public and she has to conform to the Statute of Public Decorum.

The 28-year-old will have to dress with modesty, no cleavage, no tight clothes, no short garments and, in short, no excess skin.
