Former Liverpool attacker had a starring role in Al-Nassr's 3-1 win in the Saudi Pro League

Al-Nassr celebrated a 3-1 win against Al-Fayha in the Saudi Pro League on Friday night.

Cristiano Ronaldo's and Sadio Mane's side came from behind to clinch a deserved victory, with the latter being in the spotlight for both his virtues and flaws.

Mane had a chance to level the score from the spot following an early visitors' opener, but his effort went 'miles' above the crossbar.

However, it proved crucial for the Senegalese forward, as he used this miss to motivate himself for the second-half comeback.

In the span of just six minutes, the ex-Liverpool player scored a double. The second one was especially intriguing. Mane opted for a solo run and netted through the keeper's legs, thus setting the final score.

Al-Nassr are in the runners-up position, nine points behind the league leaders Al-Hilal.
