Cristiano Ronaldo shatters incredible record with goal that ‘shouldn’t be allowed’ as Al-Nassr ramp up Saudi title bid
CRISTIANO RONALDO left fans stunned after scoring an "unbelievable" record-breaking goal for Al-Nassr on Friday.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner scored twice for the Riyadh-based side as they cruised to a 3-0 win over Al-Akhdoud in the Saudi Pro League.
His first of the game was a result of an outstanding touch in the box and composed finish from close range.
But it was his second goal that got fans talking.
After Al-Akhdoud goalkeeper Paulo Vítor came out to make a save, the ball deflected straight to Ronaldo.
The Real Madrid legend then controlled it with his chest before looping his shot over the defence and straight into the net from over 30 yards out.
Stunned fans took to X to react, with one person writing: "UNBELIEVABLE FROM THE GOAT OH MY GOODNESS."
Another commented: "That shouldn’t be allowed!"
A third person wrote: "Now that’s the Puskas goal of the year. Debate close!"
While a fourth added: "The technique to pull that off while being that far out is absolutely insane there aren't many in world football that can do that."
