Cristiano Ronaldo scores from a bicycle kick for Al-Nassr in Saudi league
Riyadh (AP): Cristiano Ronaldo gave another demonstration of his enduring quality by scoring from a bicycle kick for his Saudi Arabian club.
The 40-year-old Portugal superstar met a cross from the right wing with an acrobatic volley that was too fierce for the goalkeeper to keep out, with the goal crowning Al-Nassr's 4-1 win over Al Khaleej in the Saudi Pro League.
Ronaldo has just returned from international duty with Portugal, during which he was sent off against Ireland but celebrated his country qualifying for the World Cup. If he goes, it will be a record sixth appearance in the World Cup.

Karnataka: Woman, son killed after motorcycle collides with stationary tipper
Mangaluru (Karnataka) (PTI): A woman and her son were killed after their motorcycle collided with a stationary tipper truck in Dakshina Kannada district, police said on Wednesday.
The accident occurred on Mahaveer College road in Moodbidri municipal limits in this district on Tuesday evening, they said.
The deceased were identified as 68-year-old Prema Shetty and her 30-year-old son Srinivas Shetty, residents of Neeralkatte in Gantalkatte, police said.
Srinivas was a daily-wage labourer, they said.
According to police, the two were travelling on motorcycle from Moodbidri towards Gantalkatte when they allegedly rammed into the tipper truck parked on the roadside near a petrol bunk.
Prema died on the spot, while Srinivas sustained critical injuries and later succumbed at a hospital, a senior police officer said.
The family had suffered a similar tragedy last year when Prema's younger son died in a rickshaw accident.
Moodbidri police are investigating.
