Cristiano Ronaldo

It is not all for the money, after all. Cristiano Ronaldo is starting to make his mark in Saudi Arabia.

The Portuguese striker has sparked enthusiasm with his arrival in Asian football, although his performance in his first two official matches was not what Al Nassr fans had hoped for.

He failed to score in his league debut against Al-Ettifaq and in the Saudi Super Cup against Al-Ittihad, but the third time was the charm.

Ronaldo opened his account with a penalty against Al-Fateh and once he opened the scoring, it seems that he will be breaking all sorts of Saudi scoring records.

In an away clash with Al-Wehda, Ronaldo scored all four goals in a 4-0 victory.

Two good through balls from team-mates Ghareeb and Al Najei, left Ronaldo one-on-one with the keeper and he wasn’t in a merciful mood.

He had two goals before half-time, the crowd was on fire and there were still two more to come in the second-half.

After scoring a last-minute penalty to rescue a point for his new club last week, Ronaldo did not leave it so late this time, opening his account for the evening with a left-footed strike into the bottom corner midway through the first half.
