Cristiano Ronaldo scored his first goal of 2024 during Al-Nassr’s 1-0 victory over Al Feiha in the Asian Champions League round of 16. Ronaldo’s goal assisted by Marcelo Brozovic featured a new celebration deviating from his iconic SIUUU move. The 39 years old goal gives Al-Nassr a slight advantage going into the home leg as they aim for a spot in the Asian Champions League quarter-finals.

Ronaldo’s return to action follows an injury during the Asian Cup during which Al-Nassr secured a 6-0 victory over Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami. The Portuguese star had a notable reaction after Al-Nassr’s loss in the Riyadh Seasons Cup final. Ahead of the return leg, Al-Nassr faces Al Fateh in their first Saudi Pro League game since December.
