Cristiano Ronaldo scored as Al-Nassr beat Uzbekistan's Neftchi Fergana 3-1 in the AFC Champions League, in a match delayed by an hour after a missile alert in Riyadh. Saudi civil defence issued the warning 15 minutes before kick-off, as the capital faces missile fire from Yemen's Houthis. Angelo opened the scoring, Ronaldo doubled the lead before half-time, and a late own goal sealed the victory.
