All-Star XI vs PSG live score and goal updates as Ronaldo and Messi face off

Cristiano Ronaldo will play his first game since signing for Al-Nassr when an All-Star XI from the Saudi Pro League take on Lionel Messi's Paris Saint-Germain on Thursday.

The 37-year-old hasn't featured for Al-Nassr following his £173m-a-year move was completed after he was banned for two matches by the FA after knocking a phone out of a child's hand. That means he has been unable to turn out for Rudi Garcia's side, but he is free to represent an all-star XI in a match against PSG.

Ronaldo will captain the side, which is made up of players from Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal. In addition to Ronaldo, Al-Nassr have a number of other international stars who could feature at King Fahd Stadium, including former Champions League winner Luiz Gustavo and Colombian goalkeeper David Ospina.

Al-Hilal have several former Premier League stars of their own, with former Man Utd man Odion Ighalo, ex-Fulham frontman Luciano Vietto and one-time West Brom star Matheus Pereira on their books.

Meanwhile, PSG have sent a strong squad on their tour to the Middle-East, with Neymar, Messi, Kylian Mbappe amongst several other big-name stars involved in their ranks.

Messi in mixed form

Lionel Messi has played for PSG twice since winning the World Cup for Argentina - and has a 50% win-rate.

The 35-year-old scored for PSG in their 2-0 win over Angers on January 11 in his first game back, before drawing a blank as Christophe Galtier's side were beaten by Rennes last Sunday.

Ronaldo vs Messi lock horns

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are set to lock horns for possibly the final time when the duo play in an exhibition match in Saudi Arabia.

It will be the 37th time that Messi and Ronaldo have faced each other, with many of their previous match-ups coming during their time at Barcelona and Real Madrid. In fact, they have met just once in the last five years.

In their 36 meetings so far, Messi has scored 22 goals to Ronaldo's 21, though the World Cup winner has also notched 12 assists, with his rival only managing to set up a team-mate once.
