The Portuguese scored the first two goals of the game before his Portuguese national teammate Otavio added the third, assisted by Mane.

In a viral video shared on social media, Mane puts the game to bird before the break as he scored the fourth goal of the match.

The former Bayern Munich received the ball from Ronaldo before playing a one-two pass with Otavio, who put him through on goal.

The Senegal international made no mistake as he hit a ferocious shot past Munir to give Al-Nassr a 4-0 lead before the half-time whistle.

Ronaldo completed his treble in the match after an assist from Mane, which was the former Southampton winger's second of the night.

Second-half substitute Mohammed Al Fatil completed Al-Nassr's rout on Al-Wehda by scoring his team's sixth in the 88th minute.

Al-Nassr's next match in the Saudi League would be against Al Akhdoud on Thursday, May 9, according to a report by Soccerway.

Mane reacts to Ronaldo's unselfish act

Sports Brief earlier reported that Mane expressed delight after scoring in Wednesday's King's Cup clash between Al-Nassr FC and Al-Khaleej, helping the Saudi giants secure a spot in the final.

The Senegalese forward successfully converted from the penalty spot, courtesy of Cristiano Ronaldo's unselfish decision to hand over the spot-kick duties to him.
