But Ronaldo was forced out injured – although he presence was not missed as Al-Nassr hammered David Beckham’s side 6-0.

Otavio and Talisca opened the scoring before ex-Manchester City star Aymeric Laporte scored a stunner from his own half.

The Spanish international was quick on his feet as he spotted keeper Drake Callender off his line and attempted the impossible.

Laporte’s effort lobbed Callender perfectly and capped off a truly sensational strike.

It got Ronaldo off his feet in the stands and YouTuber IShowSpeed gobsmacked as he reacted to the stunner.

Speed – an avid CR7 super-fan – made the trip from America to Saudi in the hopes of watching his icon in action.

But he was left heartbroken when Ronaldo was forced out of the match due to a calf injury.

The match hit a sour note when players from both sides clashed in a mass brawl on the pitch.
