That has taken his tally to 26 goals for club and country this season season with 15 of those goals coming from the Saudi Pro League games.

The win keeps Al-Nassr’s hopes of winning the competition alive, having not lifted the trophy since 1990.

Other former Premier League stars have impressed for Al-Nassr including Sadio Mane and Aymeric Laporte all shining for Al-Nassr.

CR7 is currently the top goal scorer in the league with 16 goals in 15 games. Al-Nassr sits second in the Saudi Pro League table, seven points off table-topping Al-Hilal.

Winning the King Cup seals qualification for the Asian Champions League, although a top-three league finish would be enough to secure a place.
