Cristiano Ronaldo on target in first game of 2025

If Cristiano Ronaldo ended 2024 by scoring a goal, the Portuguese was not to be outdone in his first match of 2025. The Madeira native, Al Nassr's star player, did not miss his appointment with the goal in the Saudi championship clash against Al Okhdood.

In the 40th minute, Otavio threaded a pass through to Mane, who was brought down in the box by Damion Lowe. The referee did not hesitate and pointed to the spot. It was a perfect opportunity for the Madeira native to make his debut in the new year from 12 yards, one of his specialities.

The Real Madrid legend placed the ball with care and prepared to take the penalty. The No 7 made his characteristic steps when taking the kick and sent the goalkeeper the wrong way, who dived to his right.

As soon as he scored, the striker pointed his finger at the goalkeeper while laughing. Afterwards, the Madeira native went straight to the corner to hit his emblematic ‘siuuu’, the first in this 2025. That makes 918 goals in his career.
