40 Years Young! Cristiano Ronaldo Defies Age With Outrageous Overhead Kick for Al-Nassr [VIDEO]
Cristiano Ronaldo defied his age with a breathtaking overhead kick, capping off Al-Nassr's dominant 4-1 victory against Al-Khaleej in the Saudi Pro League on Sunday.
Deep into stoppage time, the 40-year-old superstar positioned himself perfectly in the penalty area. He met a cross from Nawaf Boushal with a stunning acrobatic finish, reminiscent of his iconic goal for Real Madrid against Juventus in 2018.
The strike, which occurred in the 96th minute at Riyadh's Al-Awwal Park, marked the 954th goal of his illustrious career. This latest masterpiece follows another overhead kick he scored for Portugal against Poland during the Nations League in November 2024.
Following the game, Ronaldo shared a video of his remarkable goal on his official X account, inviting his followers to come up with a fitting description. "Best caption wins," he wrote.

Al-Nassr's victory was a comprehensive team effort. Ronaldo's Portugal teammate, Joao Felix, opened the scoring in the 39th minute, with Wesley doubling the lead just three minutes later. Al Khaleej managed to pull one back shortly after halftime through Murad Al-Hawsawi.
Al-Nassr Maintained Perfect Record
However, former Liverpool forward Sadio Mane restored the three-goal cushion in the 77th minute before Ronaldo's stoppage-time heroics sealed the emphatic 4-1 win.
The result extends Al-Nassr's flawless start to the season, marking their ninth consecutive win. The team remains undefeated, having scored 30 goals so far in their campaign. This victory also marks the 62nd consecutive match in which Al-Nassr has found the back of the net.
Ronaldo has also been in fine form for his country, recently featuring for Portugal in their World Cup qualifying win against Ireland, which secured his place in what will be a record sixth World Cup in 2026.
The win extends Al-Nassr's lead at the top of the league table to four points. Despite his prolific scoring, Ronaldo, a five-time Ballon d'Or recipient, is still pursuing his first major trophy since joining the Saudi club in 2023.
