Sadio Mane and Cristiano Ronaldo combined to inspire Al Nassr against Al Fateh in the Saudi Arabia Pro League.

A video of a shocked Sadio Mane has made it to social media after an encounter with Qassem Lajami of Al Fateh. 

Mane was in top form as he inspired Al Nassr to bounce back to winning ways in the lucrative Saudi Pro League.

The Senegal international fired a stunning brace as they thrashed their hosts 5-1 in a comprehensive display and performance on Friday night.

Ronaldo scored a sensational hat-trick and assisted one of Mane’s goals as they blew Al Fateh away at home. 

However, just before the big game, former Liverpool man, Mane, was involved in a bizarre moment. 

With both teams exchanging pleasantries just before kickoff, the 32-year-old thought he had seen his teammate, Ali Lajami, in the opposition team when he shook hands with the hosts.

But it turned out to be Ali’s twin brother, Qassem, who went on to have a night to forget at the heart of Fateh’s defence.

The incident made it to social media after Al Nassr posted a video of the bizarre moment with a funny caption on their official account.

“No no Sadio, he's not our Lajami That's his twin,” Al Nassr posted on X.com.
