At 40 years of age, plenty of questions have been asked of how much longer CR7 can continue. He does, however, remain a talismanic presence for Portugal - helping them to the UEFA Nations League semi-finals - and a prolific marksman for Al-Nassr.

 In his latest Saudi Pro League performance, Ronaldo bagged a brace to claim derby bragging rights against Al-Riyadh. The all-time great turned that tie on its head as he netted twice in the second half and wrapped up a 2-1 win.

 Ronaldo enjoys legend status at Al-Nassr, with head coach Stefano Pioli among those happy to continue singing his praises. The Italian said after witnessing another match-winning performance: “Cristiano Ronaldo helped us build this team as the leader of the group. I can't speak about his performance on the pitch, what you saw today was his best response to the critics.”
