Cristiano Ronaldo debuted his latest goal celebration during Al-Nassr's AFC Champions League tie against Al Duhail on Tuesday night.

Ronaldo's impactful contributions included two goals and an assist, maintaining the Knights of Najd's flawless record in Group E.

The former Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus ace initially set up Anderson Talisca with an exquisite backheel pass, leading to the opening goal, as cited by The Times of India.

The Portuguese phenom then showcased his vintage form, scoring an exceptional long-range strike following an early second-half goal from Sadio Mane.

He will add another sensational goal with his weaker foot as his low volley proved to be the last goal of the match, with Luis Castro's men holding on to seal a thrilling 4-3 win against the Qatari champions, per Daily Sports.

After netting what will prove to be the match-winner, Ronaldo concluded with a unique celebration reminiscent of Jude Bellingham's hands-wide stretched gesture, leaving fans intrigued and impressed.

What's next for Ronaldo?

After his MVP performance against Al Duhail, the 38-year-old will now turn his attention to the Saudi Pro League when they play as guests to Al Feiha on October 28 before facing Al Shabab in the Saudi King Cup three days later.
