Cristiano Ronaldo performed a traditional Saudi dance after bagging a first-half brace for Al-Nassr in their Saudi Pro League clash against Al-Shabab on Tuesday evening.
Ronaldo, who has been in fine goal-scoring form, netted twice in the first half, propelling the Knights of Najd to a commanding victory at Al-Awwal Park.
The former Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus maestro initiated the scoring with a masterfully executed penalty in the 13th minute.
He struck again just five minutes later, but his jubilation was short-lived when the Video Assistant Referee invalidated his goal.

His precise execution from the spot prompted Ronaldo to unveil his dancing skills, as the 38-year-old momentarily shelved his signature 'Siuuu' celebration in favour of displaying Saudi culture with his dance moves.

Unfortunately, Ronaldo's selfless act didn't yield any results, as Ghareeb missed from the penalty spot.
