2023 Arab Cup: Ronaldo suffers injury after scoring brace for Al-Nassr

Cristiano Ronaldo was stretchered off with an injury after he scored a late double as Al-Nassr beat Al-Hilal to win the Arab Club Champions Cup.

Ronaldo scored an equaliser for Al-Nassr against Al Hilal on Saturday. The Portuguese international scored what he thought was his second of the day late in the contest but it was ruled out for offside and the match went to extra-time. The icon then fired in the winning goal in extra time but was taken off with five minutes left after sustaining an injury.

Ronaldo is the leading scorer in the tournament with six goals, firing Al-Nassr to his first trophy since joining the club in January.
