Odion Ighalo remembers hard work after loss to Cristiano Ronaldo
After Al-Wehda suffered a 2-0 loss to Cristiano Ronaldo and Al Nassr, Odion Ighalo says hard work never stops.
Following a sluggish beginning, Jean Seri was called for a handball, and Ronaldo scored effortlessly from the penalty spot.
Mane gets help from Ronaldo
On the cusp of halftime, Mane scored his first goal by grabbing hold of Ronaldo's pull-back and putting his low shot into the far side of the net.
He also struck the woodwork and wasted a first-time opportunity by slicing it wide, so he could have scored a hat-trick.
In the 71st minute, Mane did manage to grab his second goal as he headed Nawaf Bu Washi's cross past Gaetan Coucke.
Cristian Tello missed the crossbar with a long-range attempt, which was the closest the visitors could have done to salvage a point.
Mane has been a playmaker this season, having contributed five assists in Al-Nassr's opening five Saudi Pro League games for the team.
He did, however, find his scoring form, netting his first two goals of the season with the help of Ronaldo.
