Cristiano Ronaldo opened Al Nassr’s preseason with a hat-trick in a 4–0 win over Portugal’s Rio Ave on 7 August. The 40-year-old forward struck twice from open play and converted a penalty after João Félix was fouled, underscoring the pair’s growing on-field understanding. Félix, who joined the Saudi Pro League club on loan this summer, also provided an assist for Ronaldo’s first goal. The match was the second fixture of Al Nassr’s exhibition schedule as the Riyadh side prepares for the 2025-26 domestic campaign.
