Playing his first match since turning 40, Ronaldo once again proved his enduring quality in front of goal, but new signing Jhon Duran stole the spotlight with a stunning brace.
Just two days after celebrating his milestone birthday, the ex-Real Madrid superstar found the net as his team cruised to a comfortable win in the Saudi Pro League.
Ronaldo took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a few pictures from the game and express his excitement.
"A win and first goal after 40!"
His performance continues to defy age as he leads Al-Nassr’s charge for silverware. However, the emergence of Duran as a key attacking partner adds a fresh spark to their campaign.

Meanwhile, Ronaldo's mother, Maria Dolores, was overwhelmed with emotions as her son scored against Al Feiha in the Saudi League.
The stadium erupted in celebration, and among the jubilant crowd was his biggest supporter—his mother.
Maria, overcome with pride, cheered passionately as her son reached another milestone.
His goal was his 24th of the 2024/25 campaign across all competitions, 16th in the Saudi League, and an incredible 924th in his illustrious career.
What's next for Ronaldo and Al-Nassr?
Despite the victory, Al-Nassr still trails league leaders Al-Ittihad by eight points, but their title ambitions remain alive.
