Ronaldo on target to maintain Al-Nassr's run

Angelo had given the hosts the leave just before the break, and Al-Wehda's game went from bad to worse as Waleed Bakshween received some late marching orders.

Al-Nassr dominated the first half and, after Wesley had struck the woodwork, finally got its reward in the 40th minute as Angelo latched on to Sadio Mane's throughball to lob a fine finish over Abdullah Al Owaishir.

Al-Wehda showed some fight after going behind, with Youssef Amyn flashing a shot wide on the stroke of half-time before Juninho Bacuna forced Bento into a good save after the restart.

The result was put beyond doubt shortly after when Mohamed Al Makahasi pulled down Sultan Al Ghannam in the box, and Ronaldo made no mistake with the resulting spot-kick.

Mane was denied a goal of his own in the 81st minute, with Ronaldo straying just offside in the build-up, before Bakshween received a needless second yellow card for dissent five minutes later.

Al-Nassr move up to second in the table, just one point behind leader Al-Hilal, for now, with Al-Wehda down in 14th.
