Cristiano Ronaldo rolled back the hands of time to pull off a stunning nutmeg on a defender during Al-Nassr's top-of-the-table clash with Al-Ittihad at the Prince Abdallah Stadium.

The 38-year-old has been in scintillating form, notching eight goals in his last five matches as he spearheads Al-Nassr's title charge.

In his side's crunch tie with second-placed Al-Ittihad, Ronaldo gave credence to the old adage, "age is just a number", with an impressive skill.

What did Ronaldo do?

While charging on a counter-attack, an on-rushing Ittihad defender tried to foil Ronaldo's attack.

Ronaldo handed first loss

Despite his best efforts, Ronaldo tasted his first Saudi Pro League defeat since joining Al-Nassr after his side suffered a painful one-nil defeat at Al-Ittihad.

The 38-year-old had a near-perfect record since swapping Europe for the Middle East until he was given a reality check by Nuno Espirito's side on Thursday evening.

In what was a top-of-the-table clash, Brazilian forward Romarinho's second-half strike proved the difference between the two top-performing sides in the Saudi top flight.
