Ivan Toney denied winning start at Al-Ahli as Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr score 99th-minute equaliser, after Portuguese superstar was presented with special shirt for reaching 900 career goals.

Match Report

Ivan Toney was denied a win in the dying seconds of his debut as Al-Ahli were held to a 1-1 draw by Al-Nassr.

The England international was previously tipped with making a potential £100m blockbuster move to Arsenal before a lack of offers eventually led to Brentford accepting a cut-price figure £40m from Saudi Arabia.

Toney completed his departure from European football on deadline day and had been getting to grips with his new surroundings in the Middle East over the international break. 

The 28-year-old was given his first start as Al-Ahli sought to pick up their second win of the season away to Al-Nassr. 

Former AC Milan and Barcelona midfielder Franck Kessie's thumping strike from the edge of the box gave Toney's side the lead after 57 minutes. 


Real Madrid confirm new six-year contract for Lunin until 2030

Real Madrid have announced a new six-year deal for goalkeeper Andriy Lunin. The 25-year-old Ukraine international faced serious doubts over his future, but gave the green light on a deal last week.

Lunin played brilliantly to help Los Blancos to a Liga and Champions League double last season, but was disappointed to be dropped for Thibaut Courtois once he returned in April. With just a year left on his deal, he postponed the signing of a new deal agreed in March, and there was some suggestion that he may run down his deal.

However Real Madrid have confirmed a new six-year contract for Lunin, tying him to the club long-term. There has been some suggestion that Lunin could still depart next summer for the right offer, but Los Blancos will be operating from a position of power at the negotiating table, and will have a strong back-up for Courtois secured.
