Cristiano Ronaldo enjoyed a night to remember as his stunning free-kick earned Al Nassr a 2-1 win over Damac in the Saudi Pro League on Saturday night.

The Portuguese superstar netted a trademark effort on 56 minutes to clinch all three points as his side continued their good run of form in the SPL.

Earlier, Cameroon international Georges-Kévin Nkoudou had given visiting Damac a surprise lead on the stroke of half-time. The in-form Talisca then equalised, also from a direct free-kick, on 52 minutes, before Ronaldo took centre stage.

Before the game the 38-year-old looked visibly moved when the Al Nassr fans unveiled a magnificent tribute following his 200th cap for Portugal during the recent international break.
