Cristiano Ronaldo Leaves Fans Speechless By Scoring Sensational Overhead Kick

Cristiano Ronaldo has left fans speechless by netting a stunning bicycle kick during Al Nassr's 4-1 win over Al Khaleej.
Al Nassr extended their perfect record in this season's Saudi Pro League with their latest victory, which moves them four points clear of second-placed Al Hilal.
Ronaldo left it late to score his 10th league goal of the season, with top scorer and team-mate Joao Felix also netting to take his own tally to 11.
On 96 minutes, Nawaf Boushal's cross was perfectly met by Ronaldo, whose overhead kick flew towards the back of the net.

Goalkeeper Anthony Moris got two hands to the ball but couldn't keep it from going in.
Ronaldo is set to end his career with Al Nassr, having signed a mega-money two-year contract extension in June to see him through until 2027.
The 40-year-old has confirmed that the 2026 World Cup will be his last major international tournament with Portugal.
Ronaldo has scored 972 goals at club and international level, and will surely be aiming to reach the 1,000 mark before he calls time on his career.
By the time his Al Nassr deal ends, Ronaldo will be 42 years of age - but the five-time Ballon d'Or winner says he is still very much enjoying his football.
He said earlier this month (via ESPN): "I feel very good in this moment. I score goals, I still feel quick and sharp, I'm enjoying my game in the national team.
"Let's be honest, when I mean soon, I mean probably one, two years [before retirement]. I'm enjoying the moment. But when I mean soon, I mean really soon, because I give everything for football.
"I'm in the game for the last 25 years, I did everything. I have many records. I'm really proud. Let's enjoy the moment, live the moment."
