Al Nassr v Al Kholood - Saudi Pro League

'He scores easy goals!' - Al-Hilal legend downplays Ronaldo's hat-trick

Former Saudi Arabia and Al-Hilal goalkeeper Mohamed Al-Deayea has dismissed Cristiano Ronaldo's latest treble for Al-Nassr by claiming the veteran striker relies heavily on his team-mates for tap-ins. Instead, the retired shot-stopper believes fellow Portugal international Joao Felix was the true catalyst behind Thursday's 5-3 league win over Al-Kholood.

Cristiano Ronaldo rolled back the years with a clinical second-half hat-trick to lead Al Nassr to a chaotic 5-3 victory over Al Kholood. Despite a shaky defensive display, the individual quality of Al Nassr's forward line eventually overwhelmed the opposition.
