CR7 assists, Al Nassr cruise to win in Champions 'second tier'

Christmas Eve had Cristiano Ronaldo on the field.
The "Robozão" played for the first time with his Al-Nassr in the FC Champions League Two, the second tier of the Asian Champions League, this Wednesday (24).
He didn’t score, but contributed with a beautiful assist in the 5-1 win over Al-Zawraa of Iraq at the King Saud University Stadium.
Jorge Jesus’ team was already qualified for the knockout stage and confirmed their 100% record after six rounds in Group D.
Meanwhile, Al Zawraa advanced in second place with nine points.
Rout already in the 1st Half
The forty-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo had been rested in the previous five matches of the FC Champions League Two.
But he started against Al-Zawraa. He tried, but did not score for the 955th time in his career.
The expected Al-Nassr show began at 12 minutes, with Ângelo assisting Coman.
Wesley scored the second, picking up a rebound after a corner (19').
Al Amri extended the lead (29') after a pass from João Félix.
And the Portuguese scored the fourth after his compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo delivered a beautiful lofted pass (44').
CR7 didn’t even return after the break, already thinking about what’s to come.
Ibrahim pulled one back for the Iraqi team in the second half (50').
Bento became more involved, as Al-Nassr eased up, thinking ahead to what’s next.
But JJ’s team still got the fifth thanks to Coman (56').
