It's never enough for Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese striker scored his second goal of the match in the 98th minute to give Al Nassr the lead in the Arab Club Champions Cup final against Al Hilal.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored the equaliser in the 74th minute when his team was trailing 0-1 against Al Hilal in the Arab Club Champions Cup final. And now he has given Al Nassr the lead.

The Portuguese sent his team into extra time thanks to his performances during the 90 minutes. Luis Castro's men tried to net the second but their efforts were denied by Al Hilal's rock-solid defence.

Al Nassr players tried to score from the edge of the box but the ball hit the post and the 38-year-old headed home from inside the box after several rebounds.

Ronaldo grabbed a brilliant second to put Al Nassr into a dominant position. If the match ends this way, Castro's club will lift their first trophy of the season.
