The Al Nassr star was in supreme form as they took on Abha in the Saudi Pro League with the Jeddah-based side racing into a 5-0 lead at half-time.

Three of the goals came from Ronaldo alone, who netted two free-kicks along the way - with his third an incredible chip.

To add to his jaw-dropping opening 45 minutes, he also set up the other two goals for Sadio Mane and Abdulmajeed Al-Sulaiheem.

Ronaldo put Al Nassr ahead after 11 minutes when his low free-kick bamboozled everyone to creep in and he had another on 21 minutes with another free-kick that flew into the corner.

Having then set up Al-Sulaiheem and former Liverpool star Mane, the ex-Manchester United forward made it five for Al Nassr on the night with a beautiful chip.

That was his 29th goal of the season for Al Nassr and his second consecutive hat-trick for the club, as well.

On Saturday, Ronaldo bagged three goals against Al Tai as Al Nassr continue to chase down the Saudi Pro League title.

They sit 12 points behind league leaders Al Hilal, who boast some superstars of their own in Ruben Neves, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Kalidou Koulibaly.

For Ronaldo, it marks an incredible return to action after a disappointing international break where he had first been dropped then failed to score in a defeat to Slovenia.
