(Video) Ronaldo Scores Impressive Goal In First Al Nassr Training Session
Ronaldo took part in his first Al-Nassr training session on Tuesday evening and scored an impressive goal to kick off his time in Riyadh.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner was presented to Al-Nassr fans at Mrsool Park in Riyadh on Tuesday, January 3.
The Portugal captain was introduced as ‘the world’s greatest footballer’ in front of 25,000 raucous supporters.
But the former Real Madrid forward didn't take long to impress during his first training session with Rudi Garcia's side.

In a video captured from the stands by John McAuley, posted on Twitter, Ronaldo was sighted weaving some magic in a shooting drill alongside former Benfica star Anderson Talisca.
Ronaldo produced a powerful finish from inside the box with his ‘weaker’ left peg and it’s safe to say no goalkeeper on the planet would have got a glove to it.

Some finish that, to be fair. #HalaRonaldo pic.twitter.com/jnPhkswX6t
Ronaldo will likely make his debut on Thursday when Al-Nassr welcome Al-Tai at home in the Saudi Premier League.
