<p>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.</p>

WATCH THE CLIP

<p>Ronaldo has been in simply sublime form for Nassr this season and has scored 15 goals in 13 league games. His second on Friday, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/cristiano-ronaldo-al-nassr-every-performance-graded-saudi-pro-league-2023-24/blt9a0cc37f66036c82" target="_blank">which helped his side to a comfortable 3-0 victory</a>, was potentially his best since arriving in Saudi Arabia to much fanfare last year.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>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. </p>
