The crucial meeting between Al-Nasr and Al-Ahly teams, which is known as one of several Saudi football classics, ended with a single goal by Cristiano Ronaldo in favor of the yellow-clad team of Riyadh.
Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Sports Service: The sensitive match between Al-Nasr and Al-Ahly, which is known as one of the many classics of Saudi football, ended with Ronaldo's single goal in favor of the yellow-clads of Riyadh.
The first serious situation of the match occurred in the 37th minute. Riyad Mahrez's corner sent to the goal by Merih Demiral's header hit the post so that Al-Nasr could breathe a sigh of relief.
Al-Nasr scored in the 42nd minute. On Ronaldo's sharp escape, he was one-on-one with Edouard Mendy, and after the Senegalese defender dribbled, he shot into the net. But after reviewing the scene, it was found that Ronaldo's shoulder was ahead of Al-Ahly's last defender and this goal was rejected due to offside.
In the 47th minute, due to the fatal mistake of Al-Ahli's defender, Ronaldo was able to get possession of the ball and while he was trying to dribble Mendy, Al-Ahli's defender was able to keep the ball away from Cristiano's feet with his long hands.
This time it was Al-Ahly's turn to score an offside goal. Maximin's sharp escape from the right and his pass to Firmino led to the opening of Nasr's goal by the former Liverpool player, but this goal was rejected due to Maximin's presence in the offside.
Finally, the gates were unlocked in the 68th minute. After Sami Al-Najai entered the penalty area, he was brought down by a foul by Roger Ebens. Cristiano Ronaldo stood behind this ball and put it into the goal against the direction of Edward Mendy's movement.
Finally, this game ended with the victory of Al-Nasr 1-0, so that this team has 56 points and maintains the second place in the table. Al-Ahly is also in third place with 47 points.
