The 40-year old skipper combined with summer signing Kingsley Coman to equalise in the 37th minute after Spanish forward Jason had put the visitors in front.  Five-time Ballon d'Or winner Ronaldo then stepped up again to provide late heroics in the 14th minute of stoppage time with essentially the last kick of the match from the penalty spot.  Jorge Jesus' side have now won seven straight to start the league campaign and hold a three point lead over Al Hilal in second.  Al Fayah, meanwhile, sit 10th on eight points.  (Production: Conal Quinn)
