Real Madrid legend Cristiano Ronaldo bags brace for Al-Nassr
Cristiano Ronaldo, 39, is showing no signs of slowing down despite his age. The Portuguese forward bagged a brace as Al-Nassr beat Damac in their most recent Saudi Pro League game on Friday, November 25. He has now reached 915 career goals, a record in men's professional football.
Ronaldo had a slow start to his 2024-25 campaign but is quickly making up for lost time. He has so far scored 15 goals and provided three assists in 18 appearances for the Knights of Najd. In the Saudi Pro League, the legendary Portuguese forward has scored nine goals and provided two assists in 11 appearances. While his powers are certainly on the wane, Cristiano Ronaldo remains an attacking force to be reckoned with.
