Ronaldo set up Ghareeb to open the scoring for Al Nassr

Cristiano Ronaldo continues to prove that he is at the highest level. The Portuguese became the player with the most hat-tricks in football history last week after scoring four goals in Al Nassr's win over Al Wehda.

The Portuguese, who scored his 500th league goal last week, got off to the best possible start against Al-Taawoun at home. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner set up Abdulrahman Ghareeb to open the scoring for Al Nassr.

Ronaldo received the ball near the midfield, looked up and saw Ghareeb running down the left flank. The former Real Madrid player found the winger with space through a lovely pass. Abdulrahman Ghareeb raced free of the last defender and with a brilliant finish, put his side ahead.

In doing so, Cristiano Ronaldo has now scored five goals for the Saudi club since leaving Manchester United to start his new journey in the Pro League and has now bagged his first assist for Rudi Garcia's side.
