Cristiano Ronaldo and Al Nassr responded to their first defeat of the season in style, beating Abha 2-1 at Al Awwal Park to move level with Al Hilal and Al Qadsiah at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings after six rounds.

Ronaldo broke the deadlock in the 22nd minute, rising above his marker to meet an Angelo corner and powering a header that struck the post before crossing the line, a goal that took his career tally to 979 and kept alive his pursuit of the 1,000-goal milestone. Abdullah Al-Hamdan doubled Al Nassr’s lead in the 58th minute with a right-footed finish into the top corner, capping a dominant display from a home side missing Joao Felix through suspension and Kingsley Coman through injury. Abha refused to fold, and Nabil Fekir gave the visitors hope in the 75th minute, stepping up to a free kick from the left flank and catching goalkeeper Bento off guard by shooting directly on target rather than delivering a cross.

Ronaldo climbs into the Saudi Pro League’s scoring picture Ronaldo’s header moved him further up a crowded Golden Boot chase, though Ivan Toney remains well clear at the top. Despite Al Ahli’s 3-2 defeat to Al Qadsiah on Tuesday, Toney scored a brace in the loss, stretching his tally to eight goals and keeping him as the outright leader of the scoring charts. Behind him, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, George Ilenikhena and Iker Kortajarena are tied for second with 4 goals apiece, while Ronaldo’s strike against Abha lifted him into a much larger group tied on 3, that includes Ruben Neves, Tijjani Reijnders, Alexandre Lacazette, Angelo, Darwin Nunez, and Moussa Dembele, among others.
Arsenal’s failure to sign a ‘superstar’ may cost the club in Europe, says Paul Merson (Picture: Getty) Paul Merson has predicted Arsenal will fall short in the Champions League again this season after the club failed to strengthen their attack with an ‘X factor’ signing. Arsenal reached the Champions League final for only the second time in their history last term after overcoming Atletico Madrid to set up a mouthwatering clash with the holders Paris Saint-Germain. Kai Havertz struck after only six minutes to get the Gunners off to a flying start in Budapest, with Mikel Arteta’s men on course to complete the double and finally bring the club’s wait for a European trophy to an end. But Ousmane Dembele converted from the spot with 25 minutes remaining of normal time and PSG would go on to defend their title as Gabriel Magalhaes missed the decisive penalty in a nerve-shredding shootout.

Arsenal kick off their group-stage campaign away to Napoli later this evening and confidence will be high within the group on the back of three successive victories in the Premier League against Coventry, Aston Villa and Chelsea. Bruno Guimaraes, Ezri Konsa and Christos Tzolis have all been added to Arteta’s squad in preparation for the new season, with the north Londoners splashing out around £160million on the trio. However, former Arsenal and England midfielder Merson believes the club’s failure to sign a ‘superstar’ like Vinicius Junior or Julian Alvarez will ultimately cost them in European’s premier competition. The English champions face Napoli in the Champions League this evening (Picture: Getty) Atletico Madrid star Alvarez was heavily linked with the Gunners this summer (Picture: PA) ‘Arsenal’s record last year was amazing in the Champions League up to the final,’ Merson told Sky Sports when asked about the club’s Champions League chances. ‘They’re going to be there or thereabouts, I just don’t think they bought that X factor to take them to that level. ‘I think they’ve got enough to win them the Premier League with their squad, I just think their forward line against the big boys… I just think they’re missing that little ingredient. ‘If they’d got a Vinicius Junior or a Julian Alvarez then I think that would have given them the edge to go on and win the Champions League, and I think they might just fall short. {"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Mikel Arteta speaks before Champions League match against Napoli","contentUrl":"https:\/\/videos.metro.co.uk\/video\/met\/2026\/09\/08\/3761798954835882587\/480x270_MP4_3761798954835882587.mp4","description":"Arsenal's Mikel speaks to the press on Tuesday ahead of their Champions League match against Napoli on Wednesday at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.","duration":"T1M34S","height":270,"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/i.dailymail.com\/1s\/2026\/09\/08\/22\/111127717-0-image-m-34_1788904072537.jpg","uploadDate":"2026-09-08T22:46:27+0100","width":480} To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up Next Previous Page Next Page window.addEventListener('metroVideo:relatedVideosCarouselLoaded', function(data) { if (typeof(data.detail) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel.el_) === 'undefined') { return; } var player = data.detail.carousel.el_; var container = player.closest('.metro-video-player'); var placeholder = container.querySelector('.metro-video-player__up-next-placeholder'); if (placeholder) { container.removeChild(placeholder); container.classList.add('metro-video-player--related-videos-loaded'); } }); ‘But they will be there or thereabouts, there’s no doubt about that.’ Asked if the fanbase would prefer to win the Premier League or the Champions League this season, Merson replied: ‘Now they’ve won t
While struggling to find his best form in the UEFA Champions League debut, Real Madrid head coach Jose Mourinho asked for "respect" for Vinicius Junior after being booed. Vinicius Junior remains far from his peak form, a reality Real Madrid supporters made clear by whistling the Brazilian during their UEFA Champions League clash against Inter Milan. Following the fixture, manager Jose Mourinho backed the winger while demanding “respect” as he works to rediscover his best form. With Real Madrid hosting Inter at the Santiago Bernabeu for Matchday 1 of the 2026-27 UCL campaign, Kylian Mbappe and Brahim Diaz provided the attacking spark, while Vinicius experienced a quieter night. That frustration was made evident by the crowd when he was substituted in the 87th minute, with scattered applause drowned out by noticeable boos and whistles from home supporters. During his post-match press conference, Jose Mourinho addressed his post-game comments calling for respect toward Vinicius following the crowd’s reaction, and the manager did not hold back: “I am not criticizing the fans; I am speaking as a coach and about my relationship with him, who deserves complete respect.“ The Portuguese manager then delivered a firm message emphasizing that while Vinicius is not in peak form, his effort levels remain unquestioned as he strives to return to his match-winning standard. “He is not at his best, that is something we all see, but he is the first to know it, and he is working very hard to be the Vinícius who decides matches. But despite not being at top form, he is working harder than ever in training and in matches,” he added. 🚨⚪️ José Mourinho: “Vinicius deserves all my RESPECT”.“He’s not at his 100% and he knows it. He is working more than ever to recover his form. I have so much respect for this Vinicius”. pic.twitter.com/OiRERFNSUi— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) September 8, 2026 In front of goal, Vinicius struggled to find precision, failing to hit the target on three shot attempts, but he played a crucial role in advancing possession into Inter Milan territory. Recording eight progressive carries, the Brazilian covered 342 yards (312.8 meters) with the ball at his feet, the highest mark of any Real Madrid player in the match, while contributing heavily in defense. Mourinho concluded by reflecting on Vinicius’ overall output, expressing full confidence in the forward’s trajectory: “The few times he hasn’t been able to stay compact and defend with the block, it was due to fatigue, because he made six 50-meter sprints with the ball. It is not easy, but his commitment has been very good. I have immense respect for this Vinicius that I have encountered. The time will come when he will decide and win matches.“ Vinicius supplies crucial defensive output With Mbappe opening the scoring in the 14th minute and Federico Valverde doubling the advantage in the 23rd, Real Madrid allowed Inter to control possession while threatening on the counter-attack, a setup suited to Vinicius’ physical profile. However, the Brazilian also provided a level of defensive work rate unseen from a Real Madrid forward in over 17 years. According to OptaJose, Vinicius Junior registered nine ball recoveries against Inter Milan. The last forward to record that level of defensive output in a Champions League match for Real Madrid was Gonzalo Higuain in December 2008 during a 3-0 win over Zenit St. Petersburg. That metric represents a notable statement, particularly following Real Madrid’s pre-match press conference criticism questioning whether Vinicius and Kylian Mbappe possessed the defensive work rate of peers like Ousmane Dembele.
