There is no problem that they can't score more than 1 goal. As long as they can win the match, it is enough for them. Their goal is to get 3 points, it is needed to maintain their position in the 1st place. The match is over, they succeed to secure 3 points in this match. Now, they are leading SPL with 3 point gap from the 2nd place (Al Taawoun). Al Hilal takes the advantage from the draw result got from the match Al Taawoun vs Al Ittihad.

Well, Al Hilal surely played well today, they made many shot attempts (20 shots). Once again, Mitrovic showed us that he deserves to be the mainstay striker for Al Hilal. In this match, he scored in minute 30'. So far, Mitrovic already scored 6 goals and 2 assists from 7 appearances. It is nice stats, he is in the second place for the top scorer in SPL now.

So what if Cristiano Ronaldo can't be away from his son? Cristiano Jr always goes wherever his father is, so, it all makes sense why he will play for Al-Nassr U-13. Maybe this is only temporary, because I'm not sure Cristiano Ronaldo will be at Al-Nassr for long time, when the time comes, he will definitely send his son back to an academy that has more capabilities.


[FT] Al-Fateh 4 - 1 Abha

Even though Al-Fateh was already leading the score way ahead of Abha, they managed to make their lead even further from a goal scored by Abbas Sadiq in injury time. With this result, Al-Fateh is currently in 4th place in the SPL standings with 20 points (the same points as Al-Ittihad). But most likely they will soon be pushed back by Al-Nassr and Al-Ahli who have not yet played up their match deficit, if Al-Nassr and Al-Ahli manage to get a win in the next match, these two teams will collect 22 points.

Al Fateh will most likely be able to continue they current good trend against Abha club, because now the home team is leading very well and has managed to score 3. Meanwhile, Abha can only score 1 in that match. Even though there are still have minutes left for Abha to make a score, but it seems like Al Fateh surely can win in that match because based on statistics, the home team is better they little dominated this match.

Al hilal is playing really good in this match and created lots of chances but just isnt able to score that second goal to seal them the win. They scored in 75th minute but var cancelled it and this will make things a lot more intresting until the very end. In this league you never know and there can even be a tie in the end if al hilal dosent score a second goal fast and make it a two goal difference

Ronaldo alway make sure he keeps his son close to himself and monitor his progress, they both train together sometimes and that has helped develop him into one of the finest players for his age, his performance rate of very outstanding and he's already a future star, well I think don't it's a wrong move cause Ronaldo would be close to monitor his progress and employ good trainers to help develop him while he's playing at Al-Nassr until he's ready to move back into the European Football, Al-Nassr are really lucky to have Ronaldo and Ronaldo Jnr in their team, they'll benefit alot from their presence in the team.

 Well Al-Nassr might not be one of the best league but people shouldn't forget that they're financially strong and could afford good facilities and employees that could train their players to develop faster, coupled with the shared experienced of the top European players they bought, I believe in few years to come they'll be close to or better than  some mediocre European league like Eredivisie,Ukrainian Premier league, Scottish Premier league and few others.
 
 

For a fact, Cristiano Ronaldo has always registered his son in the academy of most of the club's he's played for starting from his days at Real Madrid before his son joined Juventus academy after Ronaldo join the club and now it's been reported that Cristiano Jnr has signed for Al Nassr's, under 13 team which I think isn't a good move for the young star.
As much as the Saudi League is trying to be so competitive like their European counterparts, it's also worthy to note that they are not in the same level with European football and that's why I think Ronaldo should've let his son join a the academy of a big European club like Real Madrid and develop from their instead of joining Al Nassr's academy.

Currently, Al Hilal is playing a match against Al Khaleej in Week 10. The match was in progress and temporarily Al Hilal was leading 1-0, the goal was scored by Aleksandar Mitrović in the 30th minute. So far, Al Hilal has controlled the game with 71% ball possession. they had 8 total shots, 3 of which were on target, only 1 of which was a big chance. Of all the opportunities they had, Al Hilal only scored 1 goal in the first half.
Meanwhile, the opposing team, Al Khaleej, was under pressure from every attack made by the home team. In fact, the squad coached by Pedro Emauel struggled to keep up with the play of the Al Hilal players. So far, Pedro Emauel's team has only had 2 total shots, none on target, and not even once threatened the home team's goal. It would be very natural if Al Hilal dominated the game more than the opposing team. because after all, these two teams have quite obvious gaps. At this time, the first half had ended.

We're just waiting for the second round to start. HHowever, Al Hilal should have been able to increase their lead in the second half, because the opposing team had difficulty keeping up with the Al Hilal squad. Unfortunately, in this match Malcom didn't really play with a good performance. after being beaked. second half, he must improve his performance. If he is able, Malcom must score a goal to ensure that Al Hilal wins this match. As for the other players such as Michael, Al Dawsari really played with a good performance. Likewise with the duo Millin-Savic and Ruben Neves as pivot. Well, if Al Hilal is able to maintain their lead in this match, or even add to their goals. In this way, Al Hilal is increasingly increasing the points gap from its rivals. However, because this match is not over yet, we are waiting for the second half to start again.

From his track record of always including his son in the junior teams of the teams he plays for, we can understand Cristiano Ronaldo's vision, he really wants to make Cristiano Jr into a professional player like him. This isn't surprising to me, because this is something big players usually do, for example Zidane. But unfortunately his son's career is not very good, in contrast to Diego Simeone's son who has a better career.

But, why are we discussing something less important here?

Yes, it must be realized by the player himself, and I say this not only for Neymar, but for all players, especially for young players who have great potential, because their journey is still very long, and it is unfortunate if something that should be avoided hinders their career.
Just imagine if young players who are full of potential have to suffer fatal injuries due to their style of play. I know that things like injuries are unpredictable, but as a player you have to be able to anticipate them so that the risk can be minimized.

I agree, Neymar is not a purely positive brand, many simply do not like him and he causes irritation. There are impudent/arrogant people who do not cause negative emotions (for example, Ibrahimovic or Mourinho) because they have proven their status and respect for what they do with their achievements and attitude to work (and this also applies to fans). Neymar has achieved a lot, but in relation to what was expected of him, he has achieved nothing, plus with his attitude that looks like disrespect for everyone, he is not a “great brand.”

It is often that we see the big football players and other sports players sons and daughters entering into the same sports and also make a name for them through their performances. Some people say that this is an unfair advantage to those kids and teenagers but I will say that they need to perform in order to become a successful footballer or a successful player in any other sports.

Happy for Cristiano Ronaldo sons that he enters in the football arena and may we see him getting same fame as his father in the future.

Cristiano Ronaldo has done a great work in many teams that is still making many coach to invite him into their team to help them to improve in their competition. I believe Manchester united are still missing cristiano Ronaldo because, they never value the type of player they have until he was released to Saudi Arabia club to display his skills that is causing progress to his team and his son team too which is making people to believe in cristiano Ronaldo gift in the football career. Cristiano Ronaldo have a beautiful story that will make many teams to live to remember and celebrate him for helping the team to achieve such goals and titles in the past.

I find this to be very very surprising news... They will certainly have their reasons and I can't of a good reason other than some highly paid contracts that we will never find out about, but making his son play for Al-Nassr is a weird position considered from the development perspective for his son. Though the main reason might be that there was a problem with their life as a family and that it was difficult to unite frequently when his son would be playing in Europe. Was he still playing for the youth team of Manchester United or where was he playing? They must have somehow been able to organize that so I am surprised about this change.

Cristiano Ronaldo next move, his son also play for to Al-Nassr. He is 13 years and such a good decision, the family is together. He will play U13 at the club and he also wears the number 7 like his dad. His son was always with him when Ronaldo was at a club. That means he was also at Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus Turin. In Italy he played his best football, he scoring 58 goals in 23 games. That is how a lot of dads do it, so it is a nice story.

As we expected these two strong teams only played a draw I mean playing it safe without changing their position in the standings. I didn't watch this match but I checked it on livescore, at first I was surprised why Benzema scored goals for each club apparently one of them was an own goal By the way we still have 2 more matches today of course Al-Hilal will be in the spotlight as a strong team and playing at home it shouldn't be difficult for them to get 3 points but the betting options don't seem interesting, Handicap for Al-Hilal is -2.5  meaning Al-Hilal must win with a difference of 3 goals.

I am of the same opinion with you. Because this decision needs to be solely taken by Neymar himself and not any other person or the club. He needs to work on his style of play if he knows that will be attractive to injuries on him. He can simplify it better by controlling the ball as at when due, issuing out a pass to a better player or creating counter attacks where necessary. It is encouraging entirely to have a player like him go into such long term injuries. It's bad for his career and he can do better.

Now, Fifa has no choice than to pay the club a compensation since the player went on an injury when he was on an international duty and it is part of Fifa's commitment to oblige to that under the Fifa Club Protection Programme. Al-Hilal have however requested for a 7.5 Million Euros as a claim and an initial payment of 1.5 million euros was sent to the club with the option to collect the rest of the payment every month.

The competence between the teams on the second and third position on the points table is very close. Unlucky Al-Ittihad as the goal of Al-Taawoun came through the own goal from Benzema soon after a goal for Al-Ittihad that kept them on lead. As the goals got levelled, entire team is doing the best, but they weren't able to convert them into goal. Full time and the additional time over and the match is a draw. Anyhow on the home ground Al-Taawoun is lucky to keep its fans enjoy the match better than losing it.

It can be concluded that Al Akhdoud is a weak team here, so it is natural that Al Feiha can maximize this match to be able to win three points. Moreover, Al Akhdoud is a promoted team and it seems that this season is the first season for Al Akhdoud to play in the Saudi Pro Lig. But even so, at least Al Akhdoud still played by managing to provide a pretty good resistance also with one goal he had. But still, I think this match will be a match for Al Feiha victory even if only with a thin score of 1-2. Apart from that, there was also a big match between Al Taawon against Al Ittihad and interestingly, Benzema was the player who managed to score a goal in this match for Al Ittihad and also an own goal for Al Taawon.

Yes and Saudis have a little bit of luck in all this bad luck, and that is Neymar wants to recover to join and try to lead Brazil in the next American Cup in USA and also in the long run think about the world cup. IF Neymar doesnt have that motivation for him ahead, i can assure he is gonna start to gain weight and dont do the recovery in the correct way.

If that's the case, as a player he should realize that his style of play is inviting injuries for him, and he should be able to change the way he plays. He can play more simply in my opinion by not holding the ball so much to attract opponents.
Self-awareness is needed in situations like this, don't let it be detrimental. And in cases like this the one who is harmed is not only himself but the club that pays him also feels the same loss because he cannot play the player in an important match.
It is unfortunate when players who have skills above average must repeatedly pull over, it makes their development hampered.
