Cristiano Ronaldo's family were not left out of the celebrations following his leading role in Al Nassr's Arab Club Champions Cup triumph.

The 38-year-old netted twice as Al Nassr came from a goal down to beat Al Hilal with ten men and win the competition, with the Portuguese ace emerging as the goal king of the tournament.

While the former Manchester United striker was leading his team to victory, his proud family were supporting him back home.

In a video shared on his girlfriend's Instagram story, which has since gone viral, Georgina Rodriguez captured the moment Ronaldo was receiving the trophy with his children celebrating in excitement.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner scored six goals, including the brace in the final to achieve his first title with Al Nassr.

An excited Ronaldo shared the moment with his teammates, praising fans of the club for showing the team massive support.

"Extremely proud to helped the team winning this important trophy for the 1st time! Thank you to everyone in the club that was involved in this great achievement and to my familly and friends for always being by my side! Fantastic support by our fans! This also belongs to you!," he wrote on Twitter.

Al Nassr begin their Saudi Pro League season with a game against Steven Gerrard's Al Ettifaq.
