Unfortunately, the second half was not what I expected as Al Hilaal were only able to score one goal and the time is already 85 minutes. I don't want to say this is disappointing because the match is ending at 4:0 if no side score again and this is already a good win for the host. Maybe they are slowing down the pressures to avoid injuries as this match is already done. The are looking forward to playing the Iranian side Persepolis FC in the AFC tournament which may be the reason for the slow pace of the second half. This is actually understandable and the wise thing to do because both competitions are important.

Al Qadisiyah will face Al Fateh, and most likely this match will be won by Al Qadisiyah because if you only look at the calculations on paper it is clear that Al Qadisiyah is the most favored team. Currently Al Qadisiyah itself is in 4th position in the standings while Al Fateh is at the bottom of the standings. With the achievement of 3 full points, it is very possible for Al Qadisiyah to be able to get it, and Al Nassr's position will really be temporarily shifted.

On the other hand, a match is currently underway between Al Hillah and Al Okhdood. The second half has just started and Al Hilal is already leading 3-0 over Al Okhdood, and it is unlikely that Al Okhdood can catch up, so the winner can be determined that Al Hillal will get 3 points in this match. and with the achievement of 3 points, their position at the top of the standings will be even stronger.

Al Hilal Vs Al Akhdoud. It's half time and the score line in 45 minutes is 3 - 0, there's no way Al Hilal and Al Littihad will pose games in the Saudi league back to back, I knew something like this will happen because they will pour the frustration of last week's loss on these team they will play this week. Al Hilal might end this game by scoring 2 goals again or more without the opponent scoring any, lol. Al Littihad will also like to win with a big margin in their upcoming game.

Al Hilal 3 - 0 Al-Akhdoud

Half Time

Al Hilal have already scored 3 goals in the 1st half, they will probably score more goals in the 2nd half, it seems to me that it will be impossible for Al Nassr to compete with Al Hilal, the funny thing is that Al Hilal does not have any player on the field who earns a salary close to Ronaldo's salary and even so the team is much better than Al Nassr

When Al Hilal plays against this kind of teams at home it always comes up as a disaster for away teams. First half already 3-0 for al hilal and i think that they will score 2-3 more goals in second half to destroy Al Okhdood. The league isnt balance enough and thats why these weak teams cant come even close to top 5 teams.

Al Hilaal have taken an early lead with by a loan goal against Al Akhdood, a small team struggling to evade relegation. It is not surprising to learn to see such an early goal from the league title holder because they will do everything within their powers to win today to avoid the shame of losing two consecutive matches which will not only hunt them but also give their closest rival, Al Ittihad the advantage to top the league for the interim. I expect more goals from Al Hilaal because narrow win should be out of the picture as they have to use matches like this to achieve both winning and goal advantage should their be a tie in the league.

Al Qadisiyah will be sure to get 3 points of victory when facing Al Fateh. Al Qadisiyah will get 3 points and will continue to be a competition with Al Nassr until the end of the season.
Al Nassrr must regret it because they got more draws in several matches than they should have won. If they had been more focused on the previous matches, maybe they could compete with Al Ittihad and Al Hilal.

Exactly, they concede too many goals, it's as if all their games they will always concede. We you concede one or two goals against smaller teams, what will then happen if they meet tougher teams? Al Hilal and Al Littihad scores lots of goals and they don't concede much even. Al Nassr really needs to work on their defense to help the attack maintain the one or two goals they score.

Yes, Al Qadisiyah has not yet played its 18th match this season. So with this, Al Nasr's position, which is currently only one point ahead of Al Qadisiyah, is of course not safe. Because it can be confirmed that in this match, Al Qadisiyah is also likely to be able to beat his opponent, namely Al Fateh. So if that is the case, it is clear that Al Nasr's position will be shifted again by Al Qadisiyah with a difference of 2 points. Therefore, I think that with the current situation, Al Nasr will most likely not be able to compete again for the top position in the Saudi Arabian league. Because Al Ittihad and Al Hilal have not yet played their 18th match. So with this, Al Nasr could indeed be left behind by a large difference in points if, for example, Al Ittihad and Al Hilal managed to win their respective matches.

But even so, Al Nasr should now be proud, because his team's performance has started to return. Because if you look at Al Nasr's last 5 matches, you could say they have had very satisfying results. Because in these 5 matches Al Nasr was able to win 4 matches and only experienced a draw in 1 match. So if you look at these results. It can be said that Al Nasr's current performance is quite stable. Therefore, even though Al Nasr currently has a small chance of becoming champion in the Saudi Arabian league. But they should be proud of their return to great form. Because with stable performance like now, at least Al Nasr can remain in the top 4 positions in the Saudi Arabian league.

I am not at all surprised by the statistics they can create, because basically they should get something like that. What even caught my attention was how they always conceded in almost every match when facing a team that on paper is far from their quality compared to them. This is what they should pay attention to, they cannot continue like this, continuing to concede goals when facing a team that is much weaker. Because this will be very dangerous when they face opponents who have the same level as them or even better than them. For example, when facing Al Hilal or Al Ittihad, one goal that nests into their goal can be a defeat for them.

Al Qadsiyah also has not played their match this week, so they can still shift Al Nassr's position if they win the match. Al Nassr is in a bad situation, to be able to catch up, they really need luck because it requires several defeats from Al Hilal and also Al Ittihad. This is not easy at all, because their fate depends on the results of other matches. Not to mention if we look at the results that Al Nassr has achieved several times, it is not impossible that they will have to experience unsatisfactory results again in the upcoming match and make the gap wider.

Yes, with Talisca departure, Al Nassr lose player who is good at scoring goal and assists Talisca was one of the best players with Al Nassr, but after he left and joined Fenerbahce news also emerged that Al Nassr would soon bring in players from Aston Villa, namely Jhon Duran as Talisca replacement.
Previously Ronaldo, Talisca and Mane were very dangerous collaboration in attack and now Ronaldo has to adapt to new players who will become his teammates and help to strengthen the front line, I don't know what you mean by without Talisca Al Nassr will have difficulty competing title at the end of the season because in the previous few season with Talisca also showed that it was difficult for Al Nassr to fight for the title.

Close is a relative term here. If they both win the game they have in reserve, it is 8 points and in the Saudi Professional League 8 points is like an ocean separating them from each other. It is a small sign that Al Nassr is still there, but they don't have it in their own hands. They can only hope for mistakes from other teams, which is disappointing enough. Ronaldo can't change anything about it, the other superstars can't change anything about it. The distance in the quality of the teams is too big and Al Nassr is trailing behind. It's impressive how many more goals Al Hilal scored despite Al Nassr having these offensive players. But you can see that money alone doesn't score goals. Ronaldo is the best example. He costs like 10 times as much as Mitrovic and is about on the same level.

Well I don't think the win keeps them close to Al Hilal and Al Littihad because as it stands both of them has a game at hand, it's until they have played that game we will know if they are close to them or they are still going to the previous 8 points gap. Even Al Qadsiah has a game at hand too, if they win it, they go above Al Nassr again. So until these three teams has played, we can't conclude that they are close to them in terms of points achievement this season.

The win was crucial, the three points kept them close to Al Hilal and Al Ittihad at the top of the standings. Meanwhile, Ronaldo is now the top scorer in the Saudi Pro League with 15 goals, he continues to make a difference for his team even though he is almost 40 years old. If Al Hilal and Al Ittihad lose points again in the future, then Al Nassr have the opportunity to return to enlivening the competition for trophies. Since being handled by Pioli, Al Nassr have not overhauled the depth of the squad, and it is only natural that the manager is now trying to do so in the January transfer window without waiting for the season to end. I think the area that Pioli needs to focus on is the defense, that will make Al Nassr a much more solid team.

This is an easy win for Al Nassr because Al Raed does not have enough ability to give a surprise even though playing at home, but honestly I agree with you Al Nassr should be able to score many goals in this match but their attacking players do not look serious in playing the game so many opportunities are wasted, only Ronaldo can be relied on, if only Ronaldo gets a quality partner and Al Nassr improves the quality of its defense maybe Al Nassr can compete tightly to win the title.

Truly, Al Nassr really dominated their opponent in all departments, 17 shots in total for Al Nassr just as you said and 6 on target. Well to have 17 whole shots and 6 were on target showed how wasteful they were in front of goal, but at least they got the win which is the most important thing they needed. At the same time, despite their dominance, they also accumulated lots of yellow cards (6) which is not really a good thing considering the up coming games were a player might be suspended for accumulation of yellow cards and their next opponent might be very strong, in all though, they won that's the most important thing right now.

AL Nassr won the match 2-1 with a goal and an assist from Christiano Ronaldo, this shows that Ronaldo is still AL Nassr's best player, Ronaldo is Trying to help the team but sometimes the AL Nassr team players are not serious, I don't know maybe AL Nassr is not looking at their player's performance before signing them, some players In AL Nassr don't know how to be serious when they need to win a match, AL Nassr need to go to Europe to get more players to challenge the other teams.

AL Nassr sign a new striker from Aston Villa and I believe he is going to help the team but AL Nassr needs to sign Midfield player and defensive players to strengthen the team, AL Nassr can not rely on Brozovic alone, the man is getting old and those players beside him and not doing well, AL Hilal and AL Ethihad have a good midfield that is why you will see their attacking players are doing well and scoring a lot of goals with conceding many goals.

The match ended with Al Nassr's victory, they managed to beat Al Raed with a score of 2-1. With the dominance and attacks they showed in the match, they should have scored more goals in this match, but they were unable to maximize every opportunity they got, at least from the 17 shots they launched in this match, at least only 6 shots were on target.

and with 3 points in this match, they returned to position 3, but Al Qadisiyah continues to shadow Al Nassr's position, and if they manage to secure three points from Al Fateh in tomorrow's match, then Al Nassr's position will be shifted again.

SPL having fierce oppositions that disturbs elite sides. Al Nassr maintain their streaking winning, they're heading straight to key into competitive title race. On the records, we're familiar with the good stats measured and maintained by Stefano Pioli. He's having one of the best leading stats for the team. One can not keep Ronaldo from banging goals. He's one resourceful player in the team, everything he indulged in is well stationed principles, he's equipped with special abilities above other teammates, making him stand out as the very best instrument for goals. Ronaldo is targeted as goal machinery for Al Nassr and there's full hope for him to reach his epic target.
