Group Stage
Despite head coach Jorge Jesus constantly rotating his starting lineup, Al Nassr were peerless in Group D as they easily took the top spot with a perfect six wins, scoring 22 goals and conceding just two.

They kicked off their campaign by cruising 5-0 past FC Istiklol of Tajikistan, with Iraq's Al Zawraa SC and FC Goa of India also unable to stop them.

Such was their dominance that only FC Goa and Al Zawraa were able to breach their defence as Al Nassr signalled their title ambitions.

Round of 16
They had to work a little harder in the Round of 16, with FK Arkadag proving to be stubborn opponents.

The AFC Challenge League 2024/25™ winners, Turkmenistan's Arkadag held their own, with Al Nassr advancing 2-0 on aggregate thanks to Abdullah Al Hamddan's strike in the first leg and Abdulrahman Ghareeb's goal in the return fixture.

Quarter-final
The West Zone quarter-finals and semi-final were played as single leg affairs in the centralised venue of Dubai and Al Nassr were simply unstoppable in their last eight tie against Al Wasl FC, with Cristiano Ronaldo opening the scoring in the 11th minute.

Inigo Martinez, Abdulelah Al Amri and Sadio Mane also found the back of the net as Al Nassr cruised into a semi-final showdown with Al Ahli SC.

Semi-final
The Qatari side had also advanced to the semi-finals unbeaten and got off to a dream start by taking the lead through Sekou Yansane's 10th minute effort.

The lead, however, lasted just two minutes with Kingsley Coman equalising as the French winger went on to complete a hat-trick.

Angelo and Abdullah Al Hamddan were their other scorers in the 5-1 win and with the final to be played at the King Saud University Stadium, Al Nassr will feel it is their destiny to lift the coveted trophy.
