CRISTIANO RONALDO pointed and smiled at the opposition goalkeeper after scoring his first goal of 2025.
The incident took place in Al-Nassr's 3-1 win against Al Akhdoud in the Saudi Pro League.
The minnows took a shock lead in the sixth minute through Redder Godwin.
But former Liverpool star Sadio Mane put Al-Nassr back level in the 29th minute.
An exciting first half followed, in which Ronaldo's team was unable to achieve a breakthrough.
However, Al-Nassr won a penalty just before half time.
Ronaldo stepped up and took the penalty.
And he finished it off with aplomb to give his team a deserved lead.
However, Ronnie made sure that Al Akhdoud's goalkeeper knew how much he wanted to get off the goal line.
Ronaldo charged towards Brazilian veteran Paulo Vitor with a huge grin on his face before pointing at him and laughing.
It is unclear why the Manchester United legend targeted the stopper.
But Ronnie certainly didn't hold back with his celebrations when Vitor complained to the referee.
The goal was indeed Ronaldo's first of the year.
And pal Mane finally got back on the scoresheet with an 88th-minute try to seal a 3-1 victory.
And it saw the Middle Eastern giants move to third in the table, eight points behind leaders Al-Ittihad.
Ronaldo's goal also put him second in the top scorers list with eleven goals, just one fewer than ex-Fulham player Aleksandar Mitrovic.
