and the game starts:

Al Nassr 0 - 0 Abha

well, this is a very important game for Al Nassr, they lost in their last game and their opponent in the race for the title is 3 points above them, so Al Nassr needs to win in this game to be able to keep the same points that Al - lttihad, the coach of Al Nassr is playing with two forwards: cristiano ronaldo and Talisca, and if they lose and cristiano ronaldo doesn't score he will be the subject of jokes everywhere, if they win and cristiano ronaldo doesn't score a goal he will be the subject of jokes, if they lose and cristiano ronaldo scores the team and he will be the subject of jokes. so the only situation where ronaldo won't be a joke at the end of this game will be if they win and ronaldo scores a goal

Note: at the time of my post 15 minutes are being played, we'll see how the game ends  

The match between Al-Fateh vs Al-Ittihad is coming to an end and the temporary score is 1-3 in favor of Al-Ittihad. Here it is very clear that Al-Ittihad will win this match and with the addition of 3 points this will increase their distance from Al-Nassr to 4 points in the standings. But after this there will be another match in the SPL between Al-Nassr vs Abha, I think Al-Nassr always wins against Abha and in their previous match in the King's Cup competition Al-Nassr beat Abha with a score of 3-1. It's just that Ronaldo hasn't scored again in recent weeks and I think in this game later he will score goals or at least contribute assists to other Al-Nassr players.

Al Wehda 1-1 Al Taawoun. Previously Taawoun took the lead in early minutes of the second half but Wehda was able to equal score by Oscar Duarte, this match is quite disappointing for Taawoun considering that currently they are better rather than Wehda in the standings, also Taawoun have many opportunities at there. Unfortunately Taawoun was only able to get one point in this match, it seems Al Wehda performance has been grow up recently they are quite consistent in getting points.

Sure you are right that it was a physical match, but you don't even see 12 minutes of extra time in a brutal Premier League game. Usually 12 minutes happens when the game had to be stopped for several injuries taking minutes and minutes to get a player off the field and taken care of by a doctor. That wasn't the case so much so I understand the fans who said that it is a bit fishy.

When Al Nassr scored the first goal, I was convinced that now this is going to be bad for Al Batin. When you concede a goal that late it is not unusual that you lose control over the game totally. The third goal didn't even matter anymore in the 104th minute or what it was, but shifts in momentum are quite normal when one team scores the equalizer in extra time. But in total Al Nassr was the better team and I think from that perspective it is ok. It is normal that fans complain when a loss like that happens.

Just a correction, Al Ittihad have taken the first rank after defeating Al Nassr in the previous round. Their match looks more difficult than Al Nassr as their competitor, Al Fateh, have been achieving nice results, whereas they won against Al Hilal, and took a point from Al Nassr. In addition, the Spanish striker Cristian Tello is ready to play this match after recovering from an injury. With this in mind, Al Ittihad could find some difficulties in this match. However, there is no way for them to lose points, as Al Nassr strives to restore the lead again.

At 38 years old, Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal career goes on, after the Al-Nassr star was named in Roberto Martinez's first squad on Friday.

    Ronaldo called up at 38 years-of-age
    Martinez's first Portugal squad since taking over
    Ex-Belgian boss said he "doesn't look at age"

Back on topic, Ronaldo's Al Nassr faces Abha tomorrow and hopefully they'll be able to bounce back from thir lost against Al-Ittihad and reclaim their first position on the table. Abha isn't going to be a problem for Al Nassr as they can comfortably defeat them even without the help of Ronaldo but hopefully Ronaldo steals the show tomorrow and get himself another hattrick so he can keep adding to his goals tally. Al-Ittihad who are in second plays Al Fateh tomorrow as well so we should be keeping an eye on that game as to see how Al-Ittihad plays to show if they'll be determined to retain their spot at the top of the table by winning.

Dude, I believe that you are still stuck in the 20th century. Arabian leagues are some of the most popular in the world now. Saudi Professional League is now watched across the globe and the signing of Ronaldo by Al Nassr has further increased the popularity of the league. And in the next few years, the situation will change further. Saudi Arabian monarchy has big plans related to sports events and they are trying really hard to win the hosting rights for the 2030 FIFA World Cup. And Ronaldo is just the tip of the iceberg. Don't be surprised if you see star players such as Kylian Mbappé and Neymar representing the SPL sides within the next few years.

Okay, but I don’t argue that for some parameters (and especially for parameters close to commerce) the Premier League is in first place, but in my opinion, according to the totality of parameters (mainly sports), La Liga dominated at that time.
As for the number of viewers and other media metrics, this is always controversial for me, because you know that the number of audience does not always mean the quality of the content.

If we are talking about which league is better, then you can say la liga, or say which league has better teams or which league has a bigger chance etc etc. Whereas when we are talking about which league is watched more? That's also a stat that doesn't lie and people all over the world watch premier league more than they watch any other league.

That's why La Liga could win all the europa and ucl they want, but people will tune in for the premier league weekend games and they won't do the same thing for la liga, well they will, but not as much as EPL. Does that make any sense? Like why is la liga better and premier league watched more? I do not know, it doesn't make sense to me neither but it simply does.

A little offtopic, but I'm really interested in this question: do you really think that in the days of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Sevilla which dominated Europe and the fact that all the best players in terms of individual performance played in the La League, the Premier League was really better? 



Probably the only measure the Premier League has been ahead of is commerce, but what does that have to do with sports? In addition, we know how many frauds and dirty schemes were used there.

Hope you know about the charges against Barcelona for bribing referee to enable them win games as they get calls that favors them. These are things that make La Liga not credible to the premier league. All league has their frauds and dirty schemes but what Barcelona has done is more fraudulent then whatever you think the premier league has done. We could see how easily players from the premier league has been ables to dominate La Liga. From Ronaldo to bale, Luka Modrić etc. Lets look at how many goals Ronaldo was able to score at La Liga compared to the premier league. La Liga is less competitive, this all the factors used to placed the premier league as the best league in the world.

when the person becomes greedy, the person becomes blind, and what is happening with ronaldo, he could have chosen to reduce his salary and accepted to play in a small team but that was in the main league and was from one of the main leagues like La Liga, Premier League, Ligue1 or Bundesliga. but as cristiando ronaldo always played for big teams in the best leagues and was the best player in those big leagues, he didn't accept relegating himself to playing in a small team, even here it can be something normal for someone who has already reached the top, so what should he do have done was to retire to maintain his good image. the guy is already very rich, what else does he want to prove to the world?

but instead of retiring he went to play in arabia where the quality of soccer is very low and even he plays with people who don't have much talent he can't play well, he can't score many goals, even to score 1 goal It's been difficult, he's gone to ruin, he's going to retire without glory and with his name being the subject of jokes, and that's what's going to happen, all because of greed. he could have stayed at manchester united, even if he was on the bench and entered sometimes he just needs to improve himself that he would have a place in the starting 11, but he went to complain about the team in public, humiliating the team. I believe that all big teams were scared of him after the interview he spoke badly about manchester united


no one cares about this league and cups of arabia, the focus is on soccer in europe, and that's sad but it's the truth, all players dream of playing in europe, being in the european champions league where the best of the best are playing, see that even good leagues like the brazil leagues where there are good players, the good players in the brazil leagues dream of playing in europe. if we compare the brazil league with that of arabia, it will be the same as comparing a professional player (the one from brazil) against an amateur player (the one from arabia), in europe it is the same thing, the one from brazil is still amateur compared to that of Europe. so ronaldo even earning a lot of money is playing soccer at an amateur level
