Cristiano Ronaldo’s recent display of support for his Al-Nassr teammate has generated a buzz on social media. Known for his individual prowess, the 38-year-old chose to pass up the opportunity for a hat-trick of penalties in order to give Abdulrahman Ghareeb a chance to score his first goal. Although the home fans were initially displeased with Ronaldo’s decision, he and former Liverpool star Sadio Mane managed to rally their support. Ronaldo had already netted two penalties and assisted another for Mane, allowing Al-Nassr to enjoy a comfortable 3-0 lead against Al-Shabab at halftime. However, when the home side was awarded another penalty, Ronaldo opted to give the opportunity to Ghareeb once again. Unfortunately, Ghareeb’s shot hit the woodwork and Ronaldo’s subsequent goal was disallowed due to the rule against two consecutive touches from the same player during a set-piece. Nevertheless, Ronaldo offered words of encouragement to Ghareeb, who is still awaiting his first goal of the season. Al-Nassr eventually scored a fourth goal through full-back Sultan Al-Ghannam, securing a 4-0 victory. In the league, early pace setters are Al-Ittihad and Al-Ahli, both with perfect records of four wins.
