Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to score 100 competitive targets with four different clubs on Saturday, but Al Nasr lost to Al Ali in a penalty shootout after the Saudi Arabian Super Cup final ended 2-2.
On the first half strike at Hong Kong Stadium, he took the 40-year-old into his century, joined the Saudi Arabian club and joined in December 2022.
In addition to his goals of 450 for Real Madrid, 145 for Manchester United and 101 for Juventus, he will move Ronaldo ahead of Isidro Langala, who played in Spain from 1930 to 1948, and three players who scored 100 times for three clubs who played for Romario and Neymar of the Brazil Stars.
Ronaldo, who has yet to win a major trophy in Saudi Arabia, is also a major international scorer with 138 goals for Portugal.
Franck Kessie quickly got equal to Al-Ahli, but the five Ballon D’Or winner went ahead with Al-Nassr after 41 minutes.
With seven minutes left, Marcelo Brozovic recovered the Al-Nassr lead, but there was still time for Brazilian defender Ibanez to go home from the corner and take the game to a penalty shootout.
Ronaldo scored from the spot once more, but his teammate Abdullah al-Kaibari wasn’t, and Al Ali won 5-3 to lift the first trophy of the Saudi Arabian season.
