Ronaldo brings back his iconic Siu celebration for his first SPL goal of 2024|

Cristiano Ronaldo debuted a new goal celebration after scoring for the first time in 2024.The Portuguese megastar bagged the only goal of the game in the 81st minute to give his Al-Nassr side a 1-0 win away to Al-Fayha in the first leg of their Asian Champions League round-of-16 clash. Ronaldo, who turned 39 earlier this month, finished coolly past the hosts' 40-year-old goalkeeper after a give-and-go with teammate Marcelo Brozovic.

Instead of performing his signature 'Siu' celebration, Ronaldo ran towards the corner flag and jumped in the air before placing his hands on his chest with his head looking towards the sky. After that, the Al-Nassr captain cupped his ear and held out his hand, seemingly a gesture towards opposition supporters.

His goal gives Al-Nassr a slender advantage ahead of the second leg next Wednesday. Ronaldo has only played twice since the turn of the year, as an injury forced him to miss two mid-season friendlies in China before also being absent for the visit of Lionel Messi's Inter Miami in the Riyadh Season Cup, a friendly tournament.

The former Manchester United and Real Madrid talisman was eventually fit for Al-Nassr's next match in the tournament, a clash with Saudi Pro League leaders Al-Hilal. Ronaldo's rivals once again got the better of him and claimed a 2-0 victory, with the 39-year-old storming off after the trophy presentation, throwing his runners-up medal into the crowd.
