WATCH: World class from Cristiano Ronaldo! Al Nassr forward scores delightful long-range chip against Al-Akhdoud just three minutes after scoring first with beautiful touch

The Portugal superstar had endured a quiet opening, but that soon changed as the game entered the latter stages. For his first, Ronaldo brought down a lofted pass with an outrageous first touch before smashing home at the near post. But his second went one better - a stunning long-range effort, lofted over a hapless goalkeeper, who found himself way out of position.

Ronaldo has been in simply sublime form for Nassr this season and has scored 15 goals in 13 league games. His second on Friday, which helped his side to a comfortable 3-0 victory, was potentially his best since arriving in Saudi Arabia to much fanfare last year.

One has to think Ronaldo will be celebrating this brace for quite some time. Nassr are next in action against Persepolis in the AFC Champions League later this week.
