Cristiano Ronaldo produced an incredible assist from inside his own half to give Al-Nassr the lead against Al-Taawoun on Friday.
Playing in the Saudi Pro League, the 37-year-old received the ball inside his own half before sweeping a brilliant pass in behind the defence to his teammate. Abdulrahman Ghareeb finished calmly to give Al-Nassr a 17th-minute lead before Ronaldo then provided another assist late on in the 2-1 victory.
While Ronaldo has already scored five goals in four games before this latest appearance – including a four-goal haul in his last outing – this was his first-ever assist for his new side. What’s more, he doubled his tally later on in the game, turning provider again as Abdullah Madu netted a 78th-minute winner.
After this match, Al-Nassr will travel away to Damak on 25 February for their next Saudi Pro League fixture.
