Al-Ahli won the Saudi Super Cup final in Hong Kong on Saturday, beating Al-Nassr 5-3 on penalties after a 2-2 draw in which Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 100th goal for the club.
Portugal superstar Ronaldo, 40, opened the scoring in the 40th minute from the penalty spot to reach the milestone after Ali Majrashi was penalized for handball
Al-Ahli, who won this year's Asian Champions League title, responded in first-half stoppage time through Franck Kessie, who finished low past Al-Nassr keeper Bento after a well-placed pass from new signing Enzo Millot.
Both sides pushed for a winner in the second half and Ronaldo tested Edouard Mendy with a powerful strike before Firas al-Buraikan struck the post.
Marcelo Brozovic restored Al-Nassr’s lead in the 82nd minute, capitalising on a poor clearance and firing home from inside the box.
Al-Ahli equalized again in the 89th minute, however, when Roger Ibanez headed in a Riyad Mahrez corner after Bento misjudged the ball.
In the shootout, Al-Ahli converted all five penalties and although Ronaldo converted his spot kick, Al-Nassr missed one to hand the Jeddah-based club their second Saudi Super Cup title.
