Cristiano Ronaldo scored a dazzling lobbed shot for Al-Nassr with fans already hailing it as the 'goal of the season'.<\/p>\n

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner was amongst the goals once again for the Saudi Pro League club as he scored a brace as they cruised to a 3-0 win at home against Al-Akhdoud. Ronaldo's return to the side following international duty with Portugal was a fruitful one as he now has 15 league goals this season.<\/p>\n

Fans had to wait until the 77th minute to see the 38-year-old get on the scoresheet and he did so in supreme fashion after controlling the ball before taking a touch and finishing home from a tight angle to make it 2-0 after Sami Al Naji's opener in the first half.<\/p>\n

In true Ronaldo fashion, he outdid himself with his second goal of the game after Al-Akhdoud goalkeeper Paulo Vitor found himself in no-man's land by making a save in his own half. The ball bounced to Ronaldo who controlled the ball with his chest and lobbed the keeper from almost 30 yards out, with the ball going outrageously high in the air in the process.<\/p>\n

Delighted with his effort after the ball practically went to the moon and back, the Manchester United legend ran off celebrating the strike with his team-mates as it capped off an impressive night for Ronaldo who's now scored 24 goals in all competitions for Al-Nassr.<\/p>\n

Fans on social media took their time to praise the stunning strike as one X user wrote: "Goal of the season for sure", while another was impressed with Ronaldo's performances despite his advancing age as they commented: "This guy is getting better and better each day bro".<\/p>\n

A third even went as far to say: "Give this man a Ballon d'Or", as Ronaldo's side are now just one point behind leaders Al-Hilal who have a game in hand. His 15 league goals are five more than the second highest scorer in the Saudi Pro League which is former Fulham striker Aleksander Mitrovic who plays for the league leaders.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ronaldo is also one of eight Saudi League players to score a hat-trick this season, alongside ex-Real Madrid team-mate Karim Benzema and Liverpool legend Roberto Firmino.<\/p>\n
