Cristiano Ronaldo scores screamer for Al Nassr after sending defender to the shadow realm

During a week that has been dominated by Lionel Messi winning a record eighth Ballon d'Or award, Ronaldo has continued his remarkable goalscoring form in the Middle East.

The Potuguese superstar was on target in the AFC Champions league last week, lashing home a stunning left-footed strike from outside the area.

And the 38-year-old rifled home another screamer for Al Nassr against Al Khaleej on Saturday, as he took his tally to 12 goals in the Saudi Pro League.

The 38-year-old picked up the ball on the edge of the 18-yard box, before feigning to shoot and sending three defenders the wrong way.

Ronaldo then shifted the ball onto his favoured right boot and fired an unstoppable effort into the corner. You can watch the goal below.


Ronaldo is clearly not letting his long-standing rival, Lionel Messi's Ballon d'or success bother him and is continue to defy age with Al Nassr.
