"A win and first goal after 40" - Cristiano Ronaldo reacts on social media after starring for Al-Nassr in win over Al-Feiha

Cristiano Ronaldo recently took to social media to celebrate his first goal after turning 40. This came in Al-Nassr’s 3-0 win over Al-Feiha in the Saudi Pro League on Friday (February 7).

The Portuguese icon turned 40 on February 5 and celebrated again by getting on the scoresheet in their comfortable win against 14th-placed Al-Feiha.

Al-Nassr welcomed Al-Feiha to Al-Awwal Park for their 19th league game of the 2024-25 Saudi Pro League season. Stefano Pioli’s men dictated proceedings and were already ahead in the 22nd minute, courtesy of winter signing Jhon Duran.

While Al-Nassr continued to boss possession even after taking the lead, they couldn’t get their second goal until the 72nd minute, thanks to Duran again.

Two minutes after Duran bagged a brace, Cristiano Ronaldo added a third for his side, tapping home a pass from Nawaf Mashari Abdulrahman Boushal that found him unmarked inside the opposition’s box. The 40-year-old veteran shared a few pictures from the game on his official X handle and wrote:

Also, the 3-0 victory propelled Al-Nassr into third place on the Saudi Pro League table, with 41 points from 19 games. They are eight points behind league leaders Al-Ittihad and five points behind Al-Hilal.

Since joining Al-Nassr in 2023, Cristiano Ronaldo has continued to prove that age is just a number, as he aims to hand the Knights of Najd their first major trophy since 2019.
