Cristiano Ronaldo has continued his fine form at Al Nassr by scoring another two goals for his new side.
The footballing legend found the back of the net once again on Tuesday night which saw them beat Al Adalah 5-0.

His first goal came from the penalty spot with five minutes remaining in the first half.
Ronaldo added his second with powerful left footed drive into the bottom corner, with Talisca’s double and Ayman Yahya’s goal completing the romp.
The Portuguese international had a slow start to life at the Saudi side, having left Manchester United in November following his explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
However, he has now scored 11 goals in as many games for the fifth club of his senior career, with some of those coming as part of two hat-tricks.
Ronaldo is thriving with his new side, despite many questioning his move to the Saudi Pro League.
Fellow icon Lionel Messi could join him in the same league this summer though, with the World Cup winner linked with a Paris Saint-Germain departure.

Fabrizio Romano reports that Al Hilal have sent an official bid to the 35-year-old ahead of a potential transfer.
The proposed deal for Messi is said to be worth in excess of £350million-a-year, which is close to double Ronaldo’s earnings of around £177million-a-year.
However, Messi’s priority is to remain in European football, and a move back to Barcelona has been touted.

The Spanish giants are set to wait for Financial Fair Play before they send a bid to PSG.
His current club have also made an offer, but Messi has not accepted it as he eyeing sporting guarantees in a new deal.
It remains to be seen where he ends up beyond the summer, but fans could get the chance to watch him play against Ronaldo once again should he move to Saudi Arabia.
