The 38-year-old has now enjoyed a fine start to the season, having bagged nine goals in six appearances in the Saudi Pro League.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner had a message for those who think he is passed his best as a footballer.

"They say Ronaldo is done… but it's not true," Ronaldo said, as per talkSPORT.

"I will continue to play until my legs say: 'Cristiano, I'm done'. 

"I still have a lot. I still love football and scoring goals. I still love winning. 

"They say I'm done but I'm still proving that it's not true."

Ronaldo currently leads all scorers in the Saudi Pro League with his nine goals, while teammate Sadio Mane has netted six times this campaign.

The win pushed Al Nassr up to fifth spot on the standings ahead of their next league encounter against Al-Ta'ee.
