Cristiano Ronaldo was impressive again on Friday evening as his side confronted Al-Taawoun. Coming from an amazing four 4-0 win away at Al-Wehda with the 38-year-old scoring all goals, CR7 at Mrsool Park took the form of a provider with assists in the two goals for his side.

Al-Nassr had the victory with a 2-1 win over Al-Taawoun, Ronaldo assisted both goals. With that victory, Al-Nassr now are back to the top of the Saudi Professional League table.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner's first assist on the night for Abdulrahman Ghareeb was a thing of beauty, a pass worthy of Lionel Messi or Kevin De Bruyne.

The second had a significant element of fortune attached to it, but they all count.

And Abdullah Madu certainly won't be complaining, with the central defender eventually awarded the goal after a lengthy VAR review to check whether Ronaldo was in an offside position.

Yeah, life is pretty sweet for Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia right now, which is great to see in the twilight years of his extraordinary career.

The former Manchester United forward is even bringing out the trademark stepovers in the Middle East - and to devastating effect.

Just ask one poor Al-Taawoun player, who was made to look like a training cone by Ronaldo's quick feet.

Ronaldo's got his mojo back after a tough few months in his career, which included the 2022 World Cup heartbreak with Portugal.
