Cristiano Ronaldo, now 40 years old, proved once again why he remains one of football’s greatest ever players by scoring a breathtaking bicycle kick in Al Nassr’s 4–1 win over Al Khaleej in the Saudi Pro League on Sunday. The spectacular 96th-minute strike instantly went viral, with fans and analysts calling it one of the best goals of the season.

The Portuguese superstar, a five-time Ballon d’Or winner, celebrated the moment on social media, posting the clip with the caption: “Best caption wins!”—and millions of fans quickly joined in.

A Goal Reminiscent of His 2018 Champions League Masterpiece

Ronaldo’s overhead kick drew immediate comparisons to his legendary goal for Real Madrid against Juventus in 2018—a strike widely considered one of the finest in Champions League history. The technique, elevation, and power behind his latest bicycle kick showed that even at 40, Ronaldo remains capable of producing moments of pure brilliance.

The goal marked his 954th career strike, further solidifying his status as world football’s most prolific scorer.

Al Nassr Extend Lead at the Top of the Table

The victory in Riyadh strengthened Al Nassr’s lead at the top of the Saudi Pro League, putting them four points clear after nine matches. It was a much-needed statement performance from a club that has invested heavily in building a world-class squad over the past few years.

Ronaldo’s teammates and fellow former Premier League stars, João Félix and Sadio Mané, also found the net, showcasing the growing strength and depth of Al Nassr’s attack.

Ronaldo Still Chasing First Title with Al Nassr

Despite joining Al Nassr nearly three years ago, Ronaldo is still hunting his first major title with the club. With the 2025 season now in full swing and Al Nassr sitting comfortably at the top, this could be the year the Portuguese icon finally lifts silverware in Saudi Arabia.

The win also highlights the rapid growth of the Saudi Pro League, which continues to attract top-tier talent and global attention—something Ronaldo himself has played a key role in accelerating.

A Reminder of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Longevity

For many fans, Ronaldo’s bicycle kick was more than just a goal—it was a message. Even at 40, the legendary forward maintains remarkable athleticism, sharp instincts, and a drive to perform at the highest level. His ability to deliver in decisive moments remains unmatched, and Sunday’s strike will undoubtedly be replayed for years to come.
