Cristiano Ronaldo scored the 10th and 11th goals of his Al Nassr career on Tuesday night in a 5-0 away win at Al-Adalah.

The 38-year-old made it 1-0 by converting a penalty kick in the 40th minute after a VAR review had found Abdulaziz Aljamman guilty of fouling Abdulelah Al-Amri inside the 18-yard box.

That was his 10th goal in the Saudi Pro League.

Al Nassr went 2-0 up against Al-Adalah nine minutes into the second half.

Talisca netted brilliantly from long range to enhance his record as the leading scorer in this season's Saudi Pro League.

Talisca then assisted Ronaldo for Al Nassr's third goal.

The former Benfica star found Ronaldo in space on the left wing and watched on as he dribbled past Arif Al Haydar before drilling a low left-footed shot into the far corner.

Talisca scored the game's fourth goal on 78 minutes with a neat chipped finish.

The Brazilian playmaker almost completed his hat-trick in added time when he tried to lob the keeper again.

This time his shot was saved, but Ayman Yahya gobbled up the rebound to complete the scoring.

Tuesday's game against Al-Adalah was Ronaldo's 11th appearance for Al Nassr.

Ten of Ronaldo's first 11 goals for Al Nassr have come in away games. Four of those goals have been penalties.
