Cristiano Ronaldo has scored his first goal for Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal, in what was a historic breakthrough for the team and the player himself.

The Portuguese forward, who has played for several top European clubs including Manchester United, Juventus, Real Madrid and Manchester City, made his debut for Al Hilal on Sunday night in a friendly match against Al Nassr.

"This is a great moment for me and my family," Ronaldo said after the game. "I am so happy to be here and play for this club."
