The Portuguese star then ran to the corner and performed his iconic Siu celebration, which he had abandoned midweek.

Ronaldo’s celebrations on Saturday did not last long as Al Fateh equalized just before the half-hour mark through Salem Al-Najdi before Otavio’s 72nd-minute winner.

Ronaldo’s goal ensured he surpassed his old rival Lionel Messi in non-penalty goals.

The 39-year-old player now has 715 goals without penalties, compared to Messi’s 714.

Due to the Asian Cup, Al-Nassr had no competitive action and the victory over Al Fateh was their first league match since December.

The Saudi team visited China during the long break, but Ronaldo was unable to play.

Ronaldo's latest goal allowed him to surpass Lionel Messi's record for goals scored without penalties.

The injury left him cheering from the stands as Al-Nassr crushed Messi’s Inter Miami 6-0.

Last weekend, Ronaldo stormed off the field after watching Al-Hilal’s Sergej Milinkovic-Savic win the MVP award in the Riyadh Cup final.

Al-Nassr lost the Riyadh Seasons Cup final 2-0 and Ronaldo threw his runners-up medal high into the stands at the end of the match.
