Cristiano Ronaldo has achieved a stunning feat in league football with two more goals for Al Nassr.

The Portuguese legend scored their second and third against fierce rivals Al Hilal in the 3-1 Saudi Pro League victory on Friday night.

Ronaldo fired a half-volley into the bottom corner on 47 minutes and then scored a late penalty to take him to 21 Saudi top flight goals.

And it’s now the 15th time during his legendary career that he’s hit such a league tally, with each occasion coming in the last 17 years.

The 40-year-old first hit 20 league goals with Manchester United in their 2007/08 Premier League campaign.

From the 2009/10 season until 2020/21, which is 12 consecutive years, Ronaldo scored at least 20 times in league competitions.

He did so nine times in LaLiga for Real Madrid and then on a further three occasions with Juventus in Serie A.

Only in the 2021/22 and 2022/23 seasons did he miss out on repeating such form, making it 15 successful campaigns from his last 17.

Ronaldo’s overall career tally now stands at 930 for club and country, with his latest strikes being the 93rd and 94th for Al Nassr.

Victory has also boosted their hopes of a top three finish in the Saudi Pro League and qualifying for the AFC Champions League Elite.

They remain third and three points behind Al Hilal, but hold the same advantage over fourth-placed Al Qadsiah.

Al Nassr were knocked out of the King’s Cup and beaten in the final of the Saudi Super Cup earlier in the season.

However, they have reached the quarter-finals of the AFC Champions League and will face Japanese side Yokohama F. Marinos.

Ronaldo therefore has more opportunities to further increase his Al Nassr and career goal tallies.

But his future in Saudi Arabia beyond the summer is uncertain as his contract expires at the end of June, with no extension finalised.

talkSPORT understands that Ronaldo could leave to sign for a team in the Club World Cup and then return to Saudi Arabia.

This means he could feature for clubs including Manchester City or Chelsea for this summer’s revamped tournament.
