Odion Ighalo scored twice from the spot as Al-Hilal defeated Al-Nassr 2-0 to dent Cristiano Ronaldo and his team-mates' fading title hopes.
Al-Nassr recently parted ways with manager Rudi Garcia amid reports of dressing room discontent, not least reportedly related to the Portuguese superstar Ronaldo, and replaced him with former youth team coach Dinko Jelicic, taking over as interim boss.
Needing a victory away at Al-Hilal to ensure they stayed in touch with the league leaders, they conceded twice from the spot courtesy of Ighalo.
It leaves Al-Ittihad three points clear at the top of the league, having played a game fewer.

It occurs to my mind sometimes.Why do people still support Ronaldo. 1.If it's beautiful football we all know he isn't playing that.Wasting lots of shots to get a good goal and brag nothing more.Dribblers play much more beautiful football. 2.If it's ideals we all know he turned his back on them when he gave up and fled to Saudi League. 3.If it's being a goat we all know he's not one.I haven't watched Pele and Maradona but I did watch Messi play it's obvious he's the best player of at least this generation 4.And if it's love for the fans we all know the guy sees his fans as money battery.Using his popularity as a strength to get a huge salary from Al Nasr and giving his fans only tap ins.
