Cristiano Ronaldo smashes home 30-yard screamer with left foot in Saudi thriller
Cristiano Ronaldo has yet again proved that age is just a number as he found the net with a delightful effort for Saudi side Al-Nassr.
Ronaldo was in action in the AFC Champions League as the Saudi side clashed with Qatari giants Al Duhail. And with Al-Nassr two goals to the good, Ronaldo opened his account for the evening with a wondergoal.
The Portuguese megastar took the ball on his right foot on the edge of the box, and shifted the ball to his left. Ronaldo picked up his head and then promptly picked out the top left corner, leaving Qatari keeper Salah Zakaria stranded.

"I dare Messi to attempt this with his right foot. I want to see something," one fan joked. While a second shared: "Ronaldo has been the best player in the world if we’re being serious…"
"Phenomenon at 38, he is still performing week in week out. I always have a soft spot for CR7," a third said. And another added: "They said he’s finished, they said he should retire, pssshhh…"

Ronaldo's first goal of the evening sent Al-Nassr 3-0 to the good, with the Saudi side already leading thanks to goals from Talisca and Sadio Mane. However, Al Duhail didn't give up, and they shocked Al-Nassr with a quick double shortly after Ronaldo's wondergoal.
The 38-year-old's second the night restored a two-goal lead, but Al Duhail still had time to find a third. It was too little too late, and the Saudi side ran out 4-3 winners.
