Sportskeeda reports that Ronaldo scored a perfect hat-trick during the tie to take his tally to 66 hat-tricks in his career.

The 39-year-old opened the scoring for his side just five minutes into the match before he doubled the advantage in the 12th minute.

Otavio made it 3-0 six minutes later before Sadio Mane joined the goal fest on the stroke of the first half.

Ronaldo went on to complete his treble shortly after the break, with Mohammed Al-Fatil capping Al Nassr's incredible display with another goal in the 88th minute.

Ronaldo sends message on Instagram

Ronaldo took to social media shortly after his impressive performance to send fans and the team a message.

"Feeling great, thanks team and fans!" He posted on Instagram.

Ronaldo's hat-trick took his tally to 50 goals for Al-Nassr this season.

Reacting to his team's performance, the Riyadh-based club's boss Luis Castro said:

"We achieved an important victory, and at the end of the season some clubs ranked poorly, and what was required was for us to give our best and achieve three points to make the fans happy.”

Mane responds to Ronaldo allowing him to take penalty

Earlier, Sports Brief also reported on Ronaldo being involved in a classy gesture with Mane after the Portuguese allowed the former winger to take a penalty.

CR7 is Al Nassr's designated penalty taker but gave up the role for the Senegalese during their meeting with Al Khaleej.

Al Nassr secured a 3-1 win, with Ronaldo bagging a brace.
