Georgina Rodriguez has reacted to Cristiano Ronaldo's wonder goal during Al Nassr's clash against Al-Khaleej.

Ronaldo was the man of the moment when his side played Al-Khaleej in the semi-final of the King Cup Champions on Wednesday night, May 1.

The Portuguese football legend scored a brace during the encounter, finding the back of the net in each of the two halves.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner opened the scoring for Al Nassr in the 17th minute before Sadio Mane doubled the advantage from the penalty spot in the 37th minute.

Ronaldo went on to make it 3-0 shortly after the break, with Fawaz Al-Torais scoring Al-Khaleej's consolation eight minutes before stoppage time.

It was one of Ronaldo's two goals that became a huge talking point after the match, with fans taking to social media to hail the Portugal international.

A clip shared by @Nfcdiario showed the legendary forward scoring a chipped volley off his left foot.

Sportskeeda reports that the former Manchester United star took advantage of a poor back pass from Lisandro Lopez to score the wonder goal.

His partner, Georgina, was among the thousands of fans who took to social media to celebrate the goal.

The stunning model shared a video of the goal on Instagram, adding a heart emoji to it.

Ronaldo will be hoping to continue with his impressive form when Al Nassr takes on Al-Wehda on Saturday, May 4.

Three times Ronaldo passed up a penalty

Earlier, Sports Brief reported on three occasions when Ronaldo has given up penalty duties for his teammates.

The Real Madrid icon was involved in a similar class gesture against Al-Khaleej in the Kings Cup.

The forward, who is Al Nassr's designated penalty taker, allowed Mane to take a spot-kick.
