Cristiano having a very good run right now, with goals in Portugal and in Alnassr in consecutive games, nice to see him replenish of faith, lets see how much time he can carry this fit.

When i see the alnassr, i cant believe how Lens let go Seko Fofana, he was their key player, and he is a great player.

I think it's about money, then at least it would be easy for them to leave. After all, playing at Lens also does not make Seko Fofana have a guaranteed good career from season to season, considering his age which may be close to entering the age of 30 maybe in the next two years . Moreover, playing at Al Nassr is also not bad at all for Seko Fofana because anyway, at this moment Seko Fofana can play with great players in the world like Ronaldo off course . But regarding Ronaldo who is still productive in making goals at this moment, then of course it is also a good performance for Ronaldo . Because yes, in old age at least his performance will slowly decline but for Ronaldo, it seems that he can still maintain his stability so far.

Benzama scored one of his usual goals with a header. He scored his goal in the 22nd minute, it was clear from the previous events that he would score this goal. Then, Al Taawoun scored from a corner kick and the same header, and the goals were scored one after the other. There were many more goals that Karim Benzama could have scored, but he could not score the other goal.

Clearly, a bad result for both teams on the way to the championship is not a score that will please anyone. I guess it was a strange match as Karim Benzama played for both teams today, I don't understand Cheesy

This Karim Benzema we see in the Saudi League is not like the Benzama in Real Madrid and he is not even near to it. Benzama is getting old and he can't have good performance anymore. otherwise, a player like Benzema is a team like Al Ittihad to win the Saudi League title while there is currently a six-point gap between them and first place of the league.

There has been a decline in Benzema's performances as he gets older, but despite his decline, it's not significant in the sense that his performance is still within standard limits and he still deserves to be in the main squad.
We also can't always expect him to perform well forever, because ups and downs in performance are a certainty in football. Especially when age eats into his performance from time to time, he also has more injuries now, although the injury is relatively mild but it is still a bad sign for him.

It cannot be denied that sooner or later increasing age becomes a frightening threat to the quality of a player, and Benzema is no exception. Of course, we will not forget his performance while still playing for Real Madrid, so that he became the best player by winning the Ballon D'or. However, I will not blame Benzema in the Al Ittihad versus Al Tawoon match, because after all, every player has the potential to make mistakes, including Benzema.

There are still 24 matches left in the SPL, and anything is still possible. It is certainly very difficult for the clubs at the top of the standings to remain consistent by sweeping 24 matches with a win. So I think the standings will continue to change every week, the opportunity for Al Ittihad to win a trophy is still open.

Al hilal is fine without him but the main problem is the money used to sign neymar will be useless caused by he was always being injury. I think that al hilal shall think about neymar. Al hilal will be getting compensation from FIFA regarding injury that happened with neymar but that's not enough caused by neymar has a very big salary. It's a loss for al hilal caused by neymar was a very important player being recruited by paying a lot of money to the PSG. Im very disappoint to hear how neymar was getting ACL injury again.
It's a very bad news to hear yesterday. I thought that if al hilal must be doing something. The international break was destroying neymar's career in SPL. It's caused by he got serious injury that was ruining his career for almost a year starting from this time.

What actions do you expect from Al-Hilal? What should they think about? I think in deals of this size/level, all options (including serious injury) should be covered. The text of the contract is not available to us, so we can only guess what will happen next. Previously, such injuries (especially at that age) automatically meant the end of a career, now medicine has advanced far, but knowing Neymar, I’m not at all sure that we will see him on the field again (at least in adequate shape).

This Karim Benzema we see in the Saudi League is not like the Benzama in Real Madrid and he is not even near to it. Benzama is getting old and he can't have good performance anymore. otherwise, a player like Benzema is a team like Al Ittihad to win the Saudi League title while there is currently a six-point gap between them and first place of the league.

A player's performance is not consistent throughout his career, or a good performance for one club is not consistent for another club. There are good reasons why we may not be seeing the kind of performances that Karim Benzema did at Real Madrid for Al-Ittihad. Firstly, Karim Benzema is now an old enough player that he cannot perform as well as he used to, and another thing is that he is not getting the same team-mates that he had at Real Madrid but at Al-Ittihad, which is why he is playing his best for the club. Can't do as well as Madrid. The way Karim Benzema's performance in Saudi Arabia is going, he may perform like this in the upcoming matches too, we may not see much good performance from him.

Karim's prime age already passed. People could expect him to deliver like what he used to be but his age will never lie about his condition right now. Even though karim has a very good stamina but it must be said that if his age makes him looks like even slower than before. Im seeing draw as a common thing in the football. It sounds bad for a team who has spent a lot of money to build its club gets draw against weaker team compared with ittihad. The situation is giving more advantage to the al hilal. We do know that if al ittihad is trying to compete for the SPL trophy this season but it's not lucky enough during the game. Many shoos being made but onla few was on target.

Al ittihad players shall have learned about how to shoot properly. That's it. I can only hope that if al ittihad will solve its problem as soon as possible. The competition is still running and the club needs to wake up again.

We have to look back at the initial goal of the SPL clubs recruiting European star players, including in this case Al Hilal, they want to instantly boost the image of the SPL on the world football stage. Al Hilal management must be very aware of the history of injuries experienced by Neymar while playing for PSG or Barcelona before, I think the decision to recruit him was full of calculations and they were prepared for all the risks, including injury. Al Hilal seems to ignore this because the most important thing for them is the status of star players. Regarding large expenses in the form of salaries that do not match the contribution made, that is not a big problem for them at the moment.

Al Hilal will be happy to accept the compensation provided by FIFA, but of course they have much more than that. In the upcoming transfer market, Al Hilal will again be hunting for star players, to make up for Neymar absence, I think Al Hilal still has a lot of money to spend on the transfer market.

In yesterday's match, namely the Al-Taawoun vs Al-ittihad match, I was not surprised by the draw that ultimately occurred. But this draw was actually lucky for Al-Taawoun. Because if Benzema didn't stand up and jump there then the ball wouldn't hit his head and score an equalizer. Al-ittihad should have won this match thanks to Benzema's excellent header in the 22nd minute. But after a few minutes, Benzema actually did the same thing to the opposing team. So the score becomes 1-1.

But for other matches, Al-Hilal, without Neymar, seems to be fine. Until now, Al-Hilal is still unbeaten in the last 10 matches. And makes them even stronger at the top of the standings. Al-hilal really seems to be the strongest candidate this season. But if Al-Nassr had not started the season with two defeats then I am sure that now Al-Nassr would be at the top of the standings.

Al Hilal performed very well and almost couldn't beat Al Khaleej but in the 30th minute Mitrović managed to get 1 score which gave Al Hilal victory until the end of the match but even though they won I was a little dissatisfied with the score produced by Al Hilal only able to score 1 score Even though Al Khaleej is not a strong club for Al Hilal.
For Al Nasr who will compete against Damac FC, it is very likely that Al Nasr will win with a score of more than 2 because Damac FC is a very weak club in this Saudi pro league and my belief is to choose to bet on -2 because at least they will score 3 goals and Damac will the team scored.

The big match between Al Taawoun vs Ittihad FC ended in a 1-1 draw and interestingly both goals were scored by Karim Benzema, I don't mean to mock him but of course, this will really bother him because usually the one who makes a mistake and scores an own goal is a defender or midfielder but Benzema was the one who in fact, the attacker made a mistake which prevented his team from gaining three points to occupy second place in the standings which could also reduce the point difference with Al Hilal.
This was a fairly even match even though the home team created fewer chances but luck was on their side to get 1 point so they still remained in second place in the standings.

Al Hilal won again, although with a narrow score and Mitrovic was again a mainstay for Al Hilal, even though they actually had quite a lot of chances, but Al Khaleej managed to keep their goal so as not to concede many goals, Neymar's absence did not affect Al Hilal in this match, perhaps because the teams they faced were quite different in strength

Benzema was the unluckiest player in the Al Ittihad versus Al Tawoon match, but this mistake was still understandable even though Al Ittihad had to be willing to share the points. Yes, Al Hilal dominated even without Neymar, and indeed Al Khaleej was not a very tough opponent for them. Furthermore, Al Ittihad has the opportunity to be moved by Al Nassr and Al Ahli from third place in the SPL standings, of course with the condition that Al Nassr must win against Damac FC, and Al Ahli must also win against Al Wahda, i think on paper Al Nassr and Al Ahli can do it easily.

In other matches, if Al Ettifaq can get full points against Al Riyadh and can score more than three goals, then Al Ittihad position will also be shifted again by Steven Gerrard squad. The SPL standings have become very competitive, I think this is reflected until the end of the season.

Karim Benzema before he joined Al-Ittihad was one of the most prolific strikers not just in Spain but also in Europe when he was with his former club Real Madrid but since he joined Al-Ittihad during the summer transfer window, he's not been too decisive in games like the Benzema we all know at Real Madrid.
He scored an own goal to bring Al-Taawoun to level with with his club Al-Ittihad four minutes later after putting them in front and that was the the only two goals in the game as it ended in a 1-1 draw.

SPL picks my interest because they have added European players to the league. Its competitive to watch players portraying their best performance on the pitch. Al Taawon versus Al Ittihad resulted in a 1-1 draw. It was a funny moment to watch Karim Benzema giving Al Ittihad the lead in minutes of first half and also the one that scored an own goal to level the scoresheet in the game. The visitors tried everything within their reach to net another but with the strong defending wall of Al Taawon reciprocated and denied them such chances.

Al Ahli, one of the teams with the highest player investment in Saudi football, had undergone a complete change, but when the new defensive duo of Ibanez and Merih failed to adapt to Jaisse's overly offensive system, we saw the team having major problems defensively in the next four games and despite Merih's withdrawal, the team's inconsistencies in terms of results continued due to failures in the support area. Al Wahda are coached by Donis, an experienced coach who knows this league very well, while Ighalo, who peaked with his Al Hilal performance, has made up for many flaws with five goals since his arrival; they have made further progress, moving away from last year's structure where Fajr was used as a false 9 many times. I expect Al Wahda, who have scored in seven of their last eight games, to utilize their effectiveness out wide. Mahrez, Kessie and Maximin are big threats for Al Ahli. We are expecting a tough match in terms of competition.

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 Cheesy

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.

Both teams played quite well in this match, in fact the two teams had quite balanced strengths, where both teams were fighting each other in buying and selling attacks in this match. Benzema is always a player who can be relied on in every match because in this match he was able to give al Ittihad an early lead through a goal he scored in the 22nd minute. But unfortunately he scored an own goal due to a header from a corner kick.

This draw does not change their position in the standings table because these two teams are currently ranked 2nd and 3rd. But for Al ittihad they have to wait for the results of the Al Nassr match against Damac because if Al nassr is able to get 3 points it could be Al nassr will move up to 3rd place this week.

Al Taawon match against Ittihad was a very competitive match, both teams had very strong performances, even Al Taawon, which did not have too many players from europe, was able to compete very strongly and maybe if the kicks from Al Taawon players did not always hit the goal, Al Taawon would definitely win in this match but unfortunately it always does not hit the target.

Benzema performed very well but made an unintentional mistake in the 26th minute and made the score equal but it is true what you said several times Benzema also had the opportunity to score again but failed all because the kick was not on target.

Luckily in that match Al-Taawon did not score additional goals to be able to excel in their game so it was not a regret for Ittihad, they had to be satisfied with sharing the points in the match.

Even though I was annoyed by losing my bet. But a draw is still a fairly fair result. And I was very entertained by Benzema in this match. In fact, I couldn't stop laughing after Benzema managed to score a goal into his own net. Benzema is in a position that is blocked by the opponent. And he didn't expect the ball to hit his head and bounce into his own team's goal. Two goals were created through headers and both were scored by the same player. I think this is a very funny coincidence. Grin

Today Al-Nassr will compete against Damac. I hope CR7 doesn't do the same thing as Benzema did. Grin

The match was full of suprises and was funny cause after scoring a fine header to put his team ahead on the game, Benzema still made an error that brought the equalizer goal 2mins later, he'll be so disappointed at himself for assisting the opposition team get a point from the game, Al-ittihad are the defending champions but I doubt if they'll win this season's trophy they're currently 6points behind the league leaders and needs to start being very consistent if they want to defend their title this season.

However in the match between Al-Nassr and Damac, i expect Al-Nassr to perform very well and win the match comfortably at home they're currently in the 5th place but a win in that match would boost them to the top 3 above Al-ittihad with 22 points, well there star player Cristiano Ronaldo was a good shape for his country in the international break and im expecting a goal from him to continue his streak.

Then, Al Taawoun scored from a corner kick and the same header, and the goals were scored one after the other. There were many more goals that Karim Benzama could have scored, but he could not score the other goal.

Clearly, a bad result for both teams on the way to the championship is not a score that will please anyone. I guess it was a strange match as Karim Benzama played for both teams today, I don't understand Cheesy

This Karim Benzema we see in the Saudi League is not like the Benzama in Real Madrid and he is not even near to it. Benzama is getting old and he can't have good performance anymore. otherwise, a player like Benzema is a team like Al Ittihad to win the Saudi League title while there is currently a six-point gap between them and first place of the league.

I think it's still in the adjustment stage and we know his arrival at Al-Ittihada is actually quite good. Karim Benzema is just not used to it and he will definitely return to his usual performance to be able to score more goals. He has indeed gotten older since leaving Real Madrid but his level is still quite high for a player in the Saudi league and I don't doubt it.

Maybe last night's draw made Al-Ittihad fail to get closer to Al-Hilal and the draw was also caused by Benzema's failure to score an own goal after he scored first for Al-Ittihad. It's quite unfortunate, but that's football, unexpected events happen and Benzema is the one who is depressed by the result. A distance of 6 points is quite difficult to achieve and they can only hope that Al-Hilal will get bad results later.
