Watch Ronaldo Scores ‘Sleek’ Goal to Reach 500 League Strikes

• Cristiano Ronaldo seems to have finally broken free from his difficult start to life in Saudi Arabia
• The former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward set another individual goal record
• His career has seen him achieve a chain of feats in England, Spain, Italy and now Saudi Arabia

Cristiano Ronaldo appears to have finally settled into life in Saudi Arabia after scoring in successive games.

The former Real Madrid goal-scoring machine endured a torrid start to life in his Middle East sojourn, blanking in his first two official matches.

However, the 38-year-old finally got off the mark for Al-Nassr with a last-gasp equalising goal, as his side were held to a 2-2 draw with Al-Fateh last week.

He continued on a similar tangent in Al-Nassr's Saudi Pro League clash with Al Wehda on Thursday, February 9.
