Cristiano Ronaldo scored both goals, including a stunning volley, as Al Nassr came from behind to secure a 2-1 home win over Al Riyadh in the Saudi Pro League.
After Faiz Selemani had put the visitors in front in first-half stoppage-time, Ronaldo drew things level 11 minutes into the second half, tapping in a close-range finish from Sadio Mane’s cross.
The 40-year-old then completed the turnaround eight minutes later with a fabulous strike, catching the ball first time from the edge of the box and rifling it into the net.

It made it back-to-back braces for Ronaldo after his double in the 3-1 victory at Al Hilal last time out, and took him to 23 league goals for the season so far.
The closing stages of the contest saw Al Riyadh have Ahmad Asiri sent off as Al Nassr, third in the table, moved a point behind second-placed Al Hilal.
