Before entering this match, Al Nassr lost to Al Ittihad by 8 points. The home field advantage helped them confidently win because only by winning would Ronaldo's club have hope of winning the national championship.
In the 2nd minute, Mane brought confidence to Al Nassr with the opening goal with a powerful left-footed shot from outside the box. The Senegalese player then passed the ball to Ayman Yahya to increase the score to 2-0 in the 37th minute. The first half ended with a 2-0 advantage in favor of Al Nassr.
Entering the second half, Al Ittihad returned with high spirits. Just 4 minutes after the ball started rolling again, Karim Benzema reduced the gap to 1-2. It didn't take long, in the 52nd minute N'Golo Kante scored the equalizer.

Ronaldo was harmless throughout the match |
Ronaldo's team had to tighten up their formation in the face of their opponents' excitement. And they did very well. Unfortunately, in the 4th minute of injury time, just when everyone thought the match would end in a draw, Houssem Aouar scored the decisive goal. Unmarked, the Algerian midfielder tapped in from close range to seal a surprising 3-2 victory.
Today was a day to forget for Ronaldo. He had 6 shots in the whole match but only 1 was on target. The 40-year-old player was lethargic in attack, and dissatisfied when watching his teammates defend. In the situation of conceding the 3rd goal, Ronaldo shrugged his shoulders, made a sleepy gesture to imply that the defenders played like they were sleepwalking, leading to the defeat.
With this result, Al Ittihad is increasingly stable at the top of the rankings with 71 points and is only one step away from the championship. Meanwhile, Al Nassr considers themselves out of the race. They are even out of the group participating in the Asian Cup C1.
