Five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo kicked off his Saudi success story with the first trophy for his new club Al-Nassr on Saturday. The match that saw Ronaldo's team go behind and get two red cards, the GOAT mocked, ended in a memorable recovery by the Portuguese international who also scored the injury time winner.
Extremely proud to helped the team winning this important trophy for the 1st time!

Ronaldo scored a brace to script a stunning comeback for his team after arch rivals Al-Hilal had taken the lead in the 53rd minute of the Arab Club Champions Cup final. A slight controversy followed as Al-Hilal's Michael decided to do Ronaldo's notoriously famous 'Siu' celebration in an act that was perceived as mockery by fans.

Ronaldo's side took time to recover as the goal was followed by two red cards which brought Al-Nassr down to just nine men. However, Ronaldo equalised with a tap-in. Then in the 8th minute of extra time, the goalscoring ace netted his second of the night, heading in a rebound to snatch a stunning comeback from Al-Hilal.
Al Hilal's Michael really thought he could drop a SIU against Cristiano Ronaldo and get away with it.

Ronaldo, however, had to walk off, raising injury concerns after two strong tackles by former Napoli and Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly. Al-Nassr held their lead and went on to win the Arab Champions Club Cup with Ronaldo getting the Golden Boot award as the tournament's top scorer.
