FootballMichael Olunga on Target vs Al Nassr As Cristiano Ronaldo Scores Twice in AFC Champions League
- Michael Olunga was among the goals when he faced Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr
- The Harambee Stars captain was in action for Al-Duhail against the Saudi Arabia giants in the AFC Champions League
- The game ended 4-3 in favour of Al-Nassr, with Ronaldo scoring twice
Michael Olunga found the back of the net with a beautifully crafted goal during Al-Duhail's clash against Al-Nassr in the AFC Champions League on October 24.
His goal was, however, a mere consolation as his side fell to a 4-3 defeat to the Cristiano Ronaldo-led side at the Al Awal Park Stadium.
Ronaldo scored twice, with Sadio Mane and Anderson Talisca scoring the other goals to ensure Al-Nassr maintained their perfect start to the group stage campaign.
Olunga's side were desperate for maximum points, having already lost once and drawn once in their first two games. Coached by former PSG Head Coach Christophe Galtier, they started the game strongly with the Kenyan striker, combining with Philliphe Coutinho and Almoez Ali.
It was Al-Nassr who got the first breakthrough, however, after a wonderful flick from Ronaldo allowed Talisca to open the scoring. Mane then scored in the second half, which was quickly followed by a stunning finesse shot from Ronaldo with his weaker foot from outside the box.
Al-Duhail, however, responded with two quickfire goals of their own through Ismaeel Mohammad and Ali before Ronaldo added a fourth goal for Al-Nassr.

Five minutes from time, Ali nicked the ball from the Al-Nassr defence and found Olunga with acres of space to bring the game back to a difference of one, as shown in the AFC Champions League highlights reel.
The Qataris failed to find another goal to allow Al-Nassr to move to 9 points on the standings, three behind Persepolis, who beat Istiqlol 2-0 earlier in the day.
