Cristiano Ronaldo-less Al Nassr slayed Lionel Messi's Inter Miami in the second match of the Riyadh Season Cup on Thursday (February 1) at the Kingdom Arena.

It was a fast start from Al Nassr, who opened the scoring within the first three minutes. Otavio took a curling shot which beat Drake Callender at the Miami goal to give Nassr the lead. The Saudi club doubled their advantage soon when Anderson Talisca was set up and the Brazilian finished in the open net.

Al Nassr's lead was tripled in the 12th minute when Aymeric Laporte scored a wonder goal from his own half. Seeing Callender off his line, Laporte took an ambitious shot and the lobbed ball beat the Miami keeper and found the back of the net.

That goal got Cristiano Ronaldo awestruck as the Portuguese wondered in disbelief from the stands.

Al Nassr's returning keeper David Ospina had to go off midway in the half as Waheed Abdullah replaced the Colombian custodian. The two teams headed into the break with Al Nassr leading Miami by three goals.

The lead extended for the home side after the break as Anderson Talisca got his second of the night from the spot in the 51st minute. Both Luis Suarez and Eduardo Campana had chances to score for Miami but the pair failed to convert the chances.

Al Nassr went on to get their fifth of the night as Mohammed Marran found the back of the net from a corner.
