The Portuguese can't stop scoring as his team progress to Saudi King Cup 1/2 final

Al-Nassr breeze past Al-Sharab in an emphatic fashion 5-2 to progress to the Saudi Cup 1/2 final on Monday night.

Cristiano Ronaldo once again made all the headlines as the Portuguese superstar netted his 50th goal of the year, a remarkable achievement considering his age.

Ronaldo received the ball in the box 74 minutes into the match and with a merciless shot sent it into the back of the net for his 26th goal of the season.

Other star Sadio Mane was also on the scoresheet having not scored since September.

It is a vital win for Al-Nassr, who aim to lift the trophy for the first time since 1990 and they are firm favorites to do so.

Should they achieve that it will be Ronaldo’s second piece of silverware since arriving in Saudi Arabia.
