Cristiano Ronaldo reacts on social media after an incredible freekick goal vs Al Feiha in the SPL 2024/24

Cristiano Ronaldo is always the talk of all the streets; he has been at his best level of football, wherever he has played. The Al-Nassr captain reacted on social media after his performance proved that he won’t slow down despite being 39 years old. After providing a goal and an assist, the Man of the Match vs Al Feiha posted on X: 

“This is only the beginning!  Let's go @AlNassrFC!”

Though the Saudi Pro League's 2024–25 season is only getting started, Cristiano Ronaldo is already causing waves with Al Nassr. Ronaldo proved his extraordinary ability against Al Feiha in only his second game of the season, therefore reinforcing his image as an unstoppable force.

Ronaldo's incredible free-kick before halftime put Al Nassr up 2-0, therefore placing him within one goal of the 900 career mark.

 After a dismal loss to Al Hilal in the Saudi Super Cup, Ronaldo recovered remarkably in the first Saudi Pro League game, against Al Raed. Al Nassr drew in that game, but his last free-kick goal against Al Feiha proved vital. Fashion Sakala scored a late goal for the hosts, after other goals from Talisca (5′, 95′) and Marcelo Brozovic (85′) supported the 4-1 triumph.

Al Nassr's first victory of the season, this one helped them bounce back from the tie earlier and the Super Cup defeat.  Cristiano Ronaldo was the top goal scorer of the SPL, where he lifted the Golden boot and is the favourite to win in again this season. 

By scoring 35 goals last season, Cristiano Ronaldo broke Abderrazak Hamdallah's previous single-season record of 34 goals held in Saudi Arabia.

The Portuguese legend, Ronaldo is getting closer to Lionel Messi's record of 65 goals from set-pieces after scoring a goal against Al Feiha on his most recent free kick.

Cristiano Ronaldo will now be seen in action for Al-Nassr against Al-Ahli Saudi on September 13, 2024. Ronaldo is anticipated to be on national duty as Portugal faces Croatia on September 6 in the Nations League.
