Cristiano Ronaldo scored three goals and assisted two in Al Nassr’s 8-0 Saudi Pro League victory over Abha at the Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Sports City Stadium, giving him back-to-back hat-tricks. Ronaldo opened the scoring with a freekick under the wall, then doubled his advantage 10 minutes later with another freekick that went through a breach in the wall.
The 39-year-old then assisted teammate Sadio Mane, a former Liverpool and Bayern Munich star, before dinking the ball over the opposing keeper from long range to complete his 65th career hattrick.
He finished a dramatic first 45 minutes by laying off the ball for Abdulmajeed Al-Sulaiheem, making it five out of five goal involvements in the first half.
