That's right, I agree with you, that this match is not too important for Al Hilal, because they are already champions in the Saudi Pro League, so any results will not affect them, it's just that maybe they will maintain their unbeaten record in the Pro League. Saudi this season. However, this draw can also make them maintain their unbeaten record, and I think they will finish the season without defeat this season.
There is something more important than this match, and that is the King's Cup final. There it will be very decisive, because victory will bring them the championship title. However, this draw is good capital for Al Nassr, because usually they lose when they meet Al Hilal. Although I don't know whether Al Hilal is really serious in this match or not. However, what is clear is that this draw at least gives Al Nassr hope because maybe they will be even better in the next meeting.

It's true, Cristiano Ronaldo himself won't be able to improve the team's performance, but he can pass on his mentality to other players to make them even better. And in fact he has done that and there is also an influence he has made, but only to that extent and nothing more. Because as you said, to make the team's performance better, all the players must be able to work together to build this.

Next season they can try again, because this season they are very far behind Al Hilal. However, they can still get at least one title, because they still have a final match in the King's Cup. They will face Al Hilal in this match which we know will be very difficult for them to beat Al Hilal. However, this does not rule out their opportunity to beat Al Hilal this season in the King's Cup Final. If they succeed in doing that, then they will be able to at least treat something they couldn't get this season.

Cristiano alone will not be able to make Al Nassr a strong team, it must be motivation from all the players who can make Al Nassr's performance improve, to be honest, the last match between Al Nassr vs Al Hilal really surprised me, Al Nassr succeeded in scoring a goal very quickly and Al Hilal managed to score a goal at the end of the match, at first I thought Al Nassr would win, but the reality said differently, Al Hilal was lucky to get a penalty kick in the final minute.

Yes, Al Nassr is being held back by its rivals by Al Hilal even though Al Hilal is trying to work hard to get revenge for the goal that was scored by one of Al Nassr's players, namely Otavhino, at the start of the first half in the first minute too.
Initially, this match was really exciting for fans of Cristiano Ronaldo and his team Al Nassr. They made an amazing breakthrough for Al Hilal because in the first minute they managed to score their first goal.
As the match progressed, the two teams really appeared very enthusiastic. In the Al Hilal camp the players were very enthusiastic and worked hard to get revenge for the goals that had been scored, while in the Al Nassr camp I saw the players wanted to end this match immediately and become the winners.

Otavhino and Cristiano Ronaldo showed good cooperation because thanks to a short ball pass executed by Cristiano Ronaldo while outside the penalty box, Otavhino received it very well and the ball was immediately shot towards the opponent's goal, namely the Al Hilal team and finally it worked too.
As time passed at the end of the first half until the end of the second half the score was still ahead 1-0, won by Ti. Al Nassr, however, who knows what happened in the last minutes of the match, a foul incident was committed by an Al Hilal player in the penalty box area so that a penalty shootout occurred for the Al Hilal team and then this opportunity was really taken to the maximum by the Al Hilal player, namely Mitrovic. who managed to score a goal against Al Nassr and the score changed to a draw, namely 1-1.

Actually its not really important match for Al Hilal get winning or not they had won Saudi pro league tittle behind their points can't reached any more by Al Nassr, I think have one match important left when both team face each other at King's Cup final and both team will fight hard to get latest for this season.
But Al Nassr failed to make first loss for Al Hilal in domestic league matches and success defend the unbeaten record until playing 32 games, left two games and seems impossible to get any team can give first defeating for Al Hilal in this season.

Currently, Cristiano Ronaldo failed scoring goals and other side his competitor Mitrovic scoring one goal, both of them remaining six goals indeed has two matches left I doubt Ronaldo's goals can reach by Mitrovic.

Unique, this match started with a quick goal by the home team in the 1st minute and the position became equal at 1-1 in the 90+10th minute through the opponent's penalty spot. Interestingly, in several matches Luis Castro changed his system pattern for the Al Nassr squad. Plus, with a 4-1-4-1 pattern in the match against Al Hilal, Al Nassr took the lead in the early minutes of the first half. Unfortunately, even though Al Nassr were able to take the lead in the first half with an early goal, they didn't do much to increase their lead. On the contrary, Al Hilal dominated the game even more, both in the first half and in the second half. To be honest, I didn't watch this match, however I can still refer to the match statistics. Supposedly, playing at home should enable Al Nassr to break the unbeaten record of their opposing team. In fact, Luis Castro should motivate his team even more to add goals to ensure they are able to overthrow Al Hilal.

But what can I say, even though it seemed that Al Hilal had difficulty breaking through Al Nassr's net, in the end they were able to avoid defeat through a goal from the penalty spot. in the end, the match had to end with a score of 1-1. well, as you said. Al Nassr should be able to use this match to motivate them for a real fight in the race for the King's Cup. At the very least, even though this match is a prestigious match, it looks like we will see a real fight for the King's Cup.

Al Nassr was almost able to win the match against Al Hilal but once again Al Nassr had to fail to get full points from Al Hilal because the 1 goal lead created by Al Nassr was not able to be maintained by Al Nassr and Al Nassr was also unable to increase the total goals scored. Since the start of the match, Al Hilal also did not want to experience defeat, he tried hard to score a goal, he took many shots and fortunately Al Hilal managed to score one to equalize.

Al Nassr is still unlucky this season in terms of beating defending champions Al Hilal who still want to continue their unbeaten record, no club has been able to stop Al Hilal in the SPL even though Al Hilal has won the league earlier, even Al Nassr has not been able to stop it, the more confident Al Hilal is cannot be stopped until the end of the competition. Al Hilal wants to win the SPL title with 0 defeats.

Al Nassr fans will find this difficult. This doodle breaks my heart. So close to that first win, but they tie it up in the 100th minute? Absolute disgrace. But these guys played hard. The defense was great, and they led for most of the game. One injury time lapse was enough. This club has talent and guts to win. We're not giving up this season. The King Cup is still available, and we'll take it. A lesson from this draw. Learning from it, strengthening, and never letting down guard is essential.

Just give Castro some time and he will deliver another great result. He will be able to break through Al Nassr's defensive line caused by al nassr used the defensive strategy. it will need more exploration for the coach to break it. Al Nassr was using a defensive strategy. It's been reflected in the statistics following the match caused by al nassr was dominant defensive instead of attacking. Al Hilal is more dominant in possession of the ball. Meanwhile, al Nassr is always completely focused on its counterattack strategy.

That is why al Nassr did not have possession of the ball, while Hilal did. The King Cup is a crucial match for Al Hilal's chances of winning its second trophy this season. Castro will be able to assist his club in identifying the main weakness of al Nassr.




That's the moment when ronaldo was missing one of golden opportunity. It's clear that if ronaldo was on side but he missed it.

Perhaps the toughest and most exciting match of the season took place last night as Al Hilal and Al-Nass drew 1-1. The whole game was a surprise to me because Al Hilal scored a goal before they knew it in the first minute of the game, Al Nasser celebrated enough to score Al Hilal so quickly. But neither team managed to score again for the next 90 minutes but Al Hilal equalized in extra time and Al Hilal fans could be heard throughout the stadium. Although the result of this match is a draw, Al Nasser will not be able to stop Al Hilal from winning the title this season as Al Hilal is at the top of the points table with more points than Al Nasser with the same number of matches played. In that case we can say that Al Hilal is the unofficial title winning team so far this season.

Al Nassr was unexpectedly scored in the first minute of the game and i could not even believe it . I mean, it's crazy to see that happened to the al hilal but this clb was performing not as good as usual, but al hilal was able to defend its record against al nassr after Mitrovic successfully scored a penalty in the late game and im feeling so happy when referee was giving a penalty . This is extremely beneficial to Al Hilal because Mitrovic's penalty keeps the team's unbeaten record this season.
Al Nassr was doing quite well here. I meant that al nassr's defensive line differed slightly from previous games against Al Hilal. They appeared to be even more consistent than in the previous duel and it was a very significant improvement from al nassr. I was rarely seeing that al nassr played better than it.

Al Nassr may be able to compete for the Saudi Pro League title again if it maintains its current performance. Ronaldo worked extremely hard to help his club, but he was unable to add to his score in this game. The outcome of this match has no significance.
Mitrovic's club tries to maintain momentum and set a new record in the Saudi Pro League, becoming an unbeatable team with perfect results.

This looks strange because Al-Nassr managed to score a goal in the first minute of the match, but after that did not succeed in increasing the number of goals to further secure the victory, instead during stoppage time Al-Hilal managed to score a goal through a penalty so they succeeded in securing an unbeaten record.
If Al-Nassr can maintain their lead and beat Al-Hilal this will increase their motivation to perform better in the King's Cup final to get the title this season but this draw might affect the mentality of Al-Nassr players who this season have had five meetings including Friendly matches can't be won even once, Luis Castro must be able to find the weakness of his team which failed to beat Al-Hilal so that the final can perform better and even reverse many people's predictions with them being the winners.

When you say there is no difference in points I agree, but we need to remember that one team has Cristiano Ronaldo and the other doesn't. Al Hilal is good, but CR7 manages to boost the team's morale and with discipline they pass easily. No matter the difference

Al Hilal is currently at the top of the points table and Al Nassr is at the second place. There is not much difference between these two teams at present but the greatest star of all time is Cristiano Ronaldo. Al Hilal team performed well in the last minute and controlled the ball for 65% of the match, while Al Nassr team had only 35% of the ball.  But Al Nassr team was successful in the first attack and scored a beautiful goal, but in comparison Al Hilal team performed well throughout the match but did not succeed.  He managed to score a goal at the very last moment of the game, and the goal was very impressive and a crowd pleaser.

I just think it is plain wrong to use words like "sure" or "definitely" or whatever for that matter when someone talks about how Al-Hilal will do next season. One thing is for sure though: repeating this season is close to impossible because they are already playing a close to perfect season. Repeating something that is closer to perfection is less likely going to happen.

Leverkusen is the same in the German Bundesliga. They played so well this season and some expert here in this forum believes that this is reason to believe they will do the same next season. I would bet 10,000 dollars against Leverkusen not losing a single game in the season 2024/2025. The same counts for Al-Hilal. They played such a remarkable season that their chance to repeat it like that is getting closer and closer to zero.

Al Nassr scored in their first attack after the kick-off. Otavio controlled Cristiano Ronaldo's pass well and put the ball into the net with a very clear shot. The home team started the match strongly. Even though Ronaldo made an assist today, the goals he missed officially cost Al-Nassr points in this match, they missed all the goals they could have scored. In the second half, Al-Hilal started to get into the game more and it took them very late to get results. Still, they reached that goal and were able to score it.

This was heartbreaking draw for the Al Nassr fans because as things were going I was sure today we are going to have first won for them with things could be turning into positive for them as well because now King Cup is also coming, and Al Nassr have chance to win this first cup of this season but 100th minute equalizer break hearts and give another draw to Al Hilal which is already confirmed champions of this season with now they are having good chance of winning the King Cup as well.

Today we have good start for the Al Nassr with 1st minute goal give them lead, and their defense was also alert which not allow Al Hilal lethal attack to have anything in 90 minute game but injury time goal give them tense end of this another game with now they are set for ending of their season without any trophy.

Al Hilal always dominated the ball possessions, they also have more shot attempts. It indicates Al Hilal has better midfielders, Al Hilal midfielders totally destroyed Al Nassr midfielders. It is lucky Al Nassr defenders performed quite well in this match, so they only got 1 conceded goal. It is even from the penalty kick, and the goal was made when the match is almost over.

The problem of Al Nassr is in the midfield and defense. I think Al Nassr must be more serious to improve the players in these positions. If they can't improve it, Al Nassr will have no chance to win the SPL trophy in the next season. Anyway, Ronaldo made 1 assist in this match although he failed scoring a goal. He already contributed quite well as a striker and as captain of Al Nassr team.

FYI, the match ended with a draw. Al Nassr 1 vs 1 Al Hilal.

Al Hilaal actually played so well even too well to deserve a loss tonight but since it is football, no matter what you played, if you did not score and instead concede, you will lose the match. Al Nassr is so lucky to have gotten that 1 minute goal from Otavio, which they are able to defend till the 90th minute. They deserve to win the match honestly and I hope they are able to withstand the last minutes pressure from Al Hilaal. This match have spoilt the clean record Al Hilaal is keeping in their league this season and I'm sure Al Nassr will celebrate tonight's win as though they won the trophy. It was indeed a nice pound of flesh they took from their oppressor.

Edit: Al Hilaal scored on penalty at the 90 +10 minutes and that changes everything for Al Nassr and ensured that their unbeaten record lingers.

According to the match stats, Al-Hilal is currently dominating the match, they have highest ball possession, attempts, and attacks more than Al Nassr; I think the early goal is a good advantage to Al-Nassr to brake Al-Hilal’s unbeaten record of the season which I think will be impossible.
If Al Nassr win this match, it will indeed be a very lucky win for them because Al-Hilal have a very good defensive line and are very good in finishing that is why they maintain their winning streak and they drew just two matches this season. Ronaldo should put more effort to help his team to score another goal to serve as a security goal for AlNassr, else it might end in a draw.
