Ronaldo's Al-Nassr fight back to win Champions League qualifier

Al-Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo will line-up for the Asian Champions League in the coming months.

The Portuguese veteran helped his team to a 4-2 win against Shabab Al-Ahli of the UAE.

Ronaldo and Al-Nassr won 4-2, securing their berth through the playoffs into the competition proper.

Al-Nassr started the scoring in this game through Anderson Talisca, but were eventually pegged back and then fell behind.

Two goals from Yahya Alghassani put them in a serious spot of bother in this contest.

However, three last-gasp goals through Sultan Al-Ghannam, Talisca, and Marcelo Brozovic won the game for Al-Nassr.

For his part, Ronaldo appeared furious at full time, as he felt his side did not get several penalty calls.
