In a significant team selection, Al Nassr will be without their global superstar Cristiano Ronaldo for their upcoming AFC Champions League 2 fixture. The club has confirmed its starting eleven for the third-round match against India's Goa, and the Portuguese captain has been omitted from the squad entirely.

The team sheet revealed by manager Jorge Jesus shows a heavily rotated side for the encounter. Further bolstering the bench, key attackers Sadio Mané, Kingsley Coman, and João Félix are also named as substitutes and will not start the game.

This strategic decision to rest top players likely looks ahead to the team's packed schedule, with a Saudi Pro League match against Al-Hazem following just a few days later on October 25th.
