That is it! The Final Whistle blows and it is Al Nassr who lift the Arab Club Champions Cup. And it is Cristiano Ronaldo, Al Nassr's talisman who scored two goals for them after Michael Delgado gave the lead to Al Hilal. Al Nassr were down and out when Abdulelah Al Amri was shown a Red, but it is their captain who has inspired them to a victory. We finish at the King Fahd Stadium, and it is Al Nassr, the 2023 Arab Club Champions Cup Winners.
Andre Carrillo makes a mess of another chance. The header from the Peruvian is tame and Alaqidi grabs it with grateful hands. The chance is gone for Al Hilal there it seems.
There is a huge shout from the Al Hilal players for a handball as the ball touched Seko Fofana's hand. But the referee didn't give it real-time, and the VAR also seems to be agreeing with that. Fofana's hand was in front of his body and it never expanded from the side of his body. Clearly a penalty for that would have been harsh.
A decent cross sent into the box, but Al Hilal's Milinkovic-Savic fails to capitalize on that. The subsequent corner also cleared by Al Nassr. We are around two minutes away from the conclusion of this match.
Al Hilal are trying to find the elusive equalizer but still no luck for them. We are around five minutes away from the conclusion and Al Nassr are holding on to their precious lead.
Cristiano Ronaldo is in pain. The Al Nassr captain clatters with Mohammed Jahfali and then falls awkwardly. The injury cart is on the field and the player is down.
A good forward ball was directed towards Andre Carrillo, but the Peruvian midfielder fails to send a cross as another Al Hilal attack fizzles out for an Al Nassr goal-kick.
A corner for Al Hilal is defended extremely well by Al Nassr. Sultan Al Ghannam wins the ball and then clears it forward. And then Abdulhamid takes a rasping shot but it flies wide. Decent strike though from the Al Hilal right-back, but not enough to restore parity for Al Hilal.
Al Hilal start the proceedings well but Al Nassr coming forward again. Seko Fofana takes a shot but Al Owais holds it without much difficulty.
Al Hilal manager Jorge Jesus is giving instructions to his team ahead of the 2nd half of Extra Time. Al Hilal do have a man advantage and they must make the most of it.
We have the pause in Extra Time and we will start for the final 15 minutes soon. At the moment, Cristiano Ronaldo's brace separates the two sides after Micheal Delgado's opener for Al Hilal.
Nawaf Alaqidi claims a cross to keep it 2-1 for Al Nassr. He then launches the ball forward but Cristiano Ronaldo can't catch it.
Al Hilal are piling on pressure in the final minute of the 1st half of Extra Time. But Al Nassr have held their fort strongly. And four minutes are added at the end of this first half of Extra Time.
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic's pass is intercepted and Al Nassr come forward with Konan. But Abdulhamd is there and the right-back wins a throw for Al Hilal.
How can you explain football! At about 75 minutes of this match, Al Hilal were cruising. They had a goal up, they also had a man up. But Cristiano Ronaldo scored to take the Final to Extra Time, and now the same man has given Al Nassr the lead.
Al Nassr takes the lead. And Cristiano Ronaldo finds the net.
He is the GOAT

The Arab Club Champions Cup 2023 will have at least 30 minutes more. Al Nassr captain Cristiano Ronaldo is having a massage on the field, as the two teams prepare to find a winner in Extra Time.
After 90 minutes, the two teams are inseparable. Cristiano Ronaldo rescue Al Nassr again with an equalizer after Michael Delgado gave Al Hilal the lead. Abdulelah Al Amri was also shown a Red Card for Al Nassr. The Final goes to extra time as we end 1-1 after 90 minutes.
Malcom came close there for Al Hilal, but the Brazilian is unable to convert it to a goal.
Corner for Al Hilal but they take a short one. And then the ball comes into the box but Nawaf Alaqidi just does enough to deny Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
