It's very difficult for any team to beat Al Ittihad this season, because they have strong defense. Maybe Al Nassr should wait for another team to prevent Al Ittihad from scoring and force them into a draw, like what Al Raed recently did. From other side, both teams still have a match against Al Hilal, who are the only team that could affect the current standings, in my opinion. However, the excitement may last until the last rounds of the league, just like the previous season, when Al Ittihad lost a match and drew in another, resulting in Al Hilal winning the title.

i think what you say is true. Because before CR7 joined the Al-Nassr club, the majority of us were not at all interested in this league. but after CR7 entered Al-nassr, we were all interested and curious about this league. and it turns out that the competition in this league is also very interesting and quite fierce.

And as an example is Al-ittihad which is a rival for Al-Nasar. and it is similar to Real Madrid and Barcelona in LaLiga. Al-ittihad and Al-Nassr also have the same thing about this Rivalry. which makes the Saudi Pro league interesting. And one of the causes of CR7's frustration in this match was because Al-Nassr had to lose to their rival, Al-Ittihad. and I also hope that CR7 can lift the trophy with Al-Nassr.

There are 10 more games left, if they win as much as they can, there is still time to recover from this and there is just one point difference, so a tie from ittihad means that they could end up being better in the long run with a win at the same week and they will get back the lead.

However, Ronaldo needs to keep his head down and grind because he can't miss any chances anymore, he scored a lot of goals in a few games when they played lower level teams, but he needs to score just like that against everyone, if he is AFK just like this game a few more times then all of that money was for nothing and they could have bought another player, Ronaldo can't let all these situations get into his head anymore. This is his last stop.

No one expected it, that is why you can't predict football because   things can happen which you don't expect.  But all the same is move to Saudi Arabia is not bad, it has many advantages for the club  and won't be a strange decision for other players to take after now.

That game was very frustrating for Ronaldo, he really wanted to revenge the lost to Al-Ittihad but still couldn't. Ronaldo doesn't feel comfortable with losing unlike how some professional footballers behave when they lose and that's the mentally that has gotten him this far, he always want to win and you could see his frustration that it wasn't happening. It was evident that Al-Ittihad was going to win that match as they were the more dominate side and kept on pushing until they finally got their reward with a goal. At that point I thought the best Al Nassr could get was a draw since they weren't in that game but sadly they lost.

I just hope Al Nassr can reclaim their position in the coming games as I really want to see Al Nassr lift the trophy just for the sake of Ronaldo. He mad us fall in love with this leagues nobody knew about it or even watch it until he made the move to the league. Al Nassr next game is against Abha and they will be meeting twice, first in the King Cup of Champions tournament and then the league game. Abha isn't much of a challenge to Al Nassr as they can easily defeat them so we should be expecting Al Nassr to win both games.

Hmmm, even though they actually still deserve to race for the SPL title, I'm a little doubtful about that, because in their remaining SPL matches, they still have to meet Al-Shabab, Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad. Of course the matches will not be easy for them.

Yes, I also actually didn't expect Al-Taawoun to be easy to beat with very bad, this season Taawoun has been good and even made it difficult for Al Nassr some time ago. I mean when against Al Nassr, they can be able to scored into Nassr team which ended with a score of 2-1, although Taawoun lost but there they good enough.

For the title race it looks like it's still deserves, if Al Hilal gets 6 points from the two postponed matches and they will have 42 points, so the gap with Al-ittihad will be 5 points different. So in my opinion there is still a possibility for Al-Hilal to get the title, because there are still a lot of matches left at here, 10 matches are enough to be in the top position.

Al Hilal is a team that always dominates the pro saudi league trophy. unfortunately, their performance has decreased this season and was only able to rank 4th in the standings. referring to the victory over Al Taawoun, Al Hilal should have returned to his best form. anyway, based on the statistics of this match. Al Hilal has 62% ball possession, 21 total shots, 13 shots on target, and 5 shots off target. different from what the home team showed, they only had 2 shots on target from 13 attempts.


Well, if Al Hilal can appear consistently until the end of this season. plus, they have two games postponed. at least, Al Hilal has the potential to shift Al Shabab's ranking which is above their position. also, Al Hilal still has one last meeting with their toughest rivals namely Al Nassr and Al Ittihad. if Ramos Diaz's team is able to maintain its performance and consistency until the end of this season. then they have the opportunity to minimize points from the top standings. even then, on condition that both Al Nassr and Al Ittihad, slip in the next few matches. However, if this scenario occurs, the race for the Saudi Pro League trophy will be even more competitive.

Al-Nasr performed poorly against Al-ittihad and do we have to blame only Ronlado for that performance? A tree can't make a forest,there are other players who fail to perform their duties well. The midfielder didn't give Ronaldo a chance for him to try his luck. We shouldn't also forget that Al-ittihad is their rival and they are a very strong team.

It is like Al-Nassr  looked down on their opponent by not taking them as a problem to them which led to their defeat. I believe that Al-Nassr will win their next match and  Ronaldo will perform better.

Not always Ronaldo can make the team win. We always blame Ronaldo for not being able to perform well
There are other players in the team who also need to perform. But we always expect from Ronaldo

Al-Nassr lost 1-0 against Al-Ittihad. In this match, none of his teammates including Ronaldo could shine. Al-Ittihad kept the ball in their possession throughout the match. Not just the ball but they were short on target. However, we have not seen such an attack from Ronaldo in this match as Ronaldo attacks on other days. Basically, everyone failed to pass the ball to Ronaldo from the midfield, that's why Ronaldo couldn't score any goals in the last match. But good luck to Al-Nassr and hope they do well in the upcoming matches.  And congratulations Al-Ittihad For such a nice win against Al-Nassr.

I didn't expect that Al-Taawoun could be destroyed so easily by Al-Hilal, even though Al-Taawoun is not a weak team in the SPL, as evidenced by their being ranked 5th in the SPL. BTW, do you think Al-Hilal still deserves to race for the SPL title? at the moment they have only 36 points, but they are still 2 games away from teams like Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad and Al-Shabab.

I am constantly saying that it was not a good choice for ronaldo to go to play in this country, the behavior of the fans and even the management of clubs in saudi arabia are not good behaviors, they have a lot of lack of respect and lack of education, weeks ago when cristiano ronaldo's team lost, the fans took the shirt with cristiano ronaldo's name and started to step on the shirt and insulted, showing the low level of education they have, in this last game after the defeat of cristiano ronaldo's team the fans returned to carry out acts of lack of education. for example:

Cristiano Ronaldo reaction as rival fans chant Lionel Messi’s name in the game against Al Ittihad


And we can see ronaldo's frustration and irritation in this video:

I wonder:

how long will ronaldo last playing in a place like this?

do they really think messi will want to go to a place like this after seeing the low level of education these people have?

the problem with these arabs is that they think that their money buys everything and due to that thought they treat people very badly, in my opinion ronaldo should have retired, he made a big mistake in going to play in this end of the world, this place where he is playing will be hell for him, in the next games where he loses we will see more things like that, maybe we can even see worse things, we can expect everything unpleasant from these Arabs, they think that a team should only win, they they think ronaldo is a miracle worker, the local guys don't even know how to pass correctly so how do they expect to win every time? in their teams there must be players from arabia, and those arabian players have no talent

The battle for the fourth position continues between Al Taawoun and Al Hilal. With the win against Al Taawoun, Al Hilal have secured the fourth position. The difference in points is low, but the two teams have got two match difference. More matches are to be played, so the points table could change anyway. The win is big, as Al Hilal had 4 goals and Al Taawoun wasn't able to make a single goal. As the league is getting to go for a long, consistent performance from every team is a must.

As I said previously posted, that Al Ittihad will win the match against Al Nassr. With this victory, Al Ittihad shifted the leader of the standings which was previously occupied by Al Nassr. plus, Nuno Santo's squad is currently one step ahead of Al Nassr in the race for a trophy this season. So, Nuno Santo's squad only needs to maintain consistency until the end of the season. that way, Al Nassr will find it difficult to overtake the leader of the standings. The reason is, the Saudi Pro League only leaves 10 matches remaining until the end of this season. but it's not an easy matter for Al Ittihad to continue to appear consistently, because after all there are other tough teams that they have to overthrow in the following matches.

On the other hand, Al Nassr will not allow the Saudi Pro League trophy to be won by its competitors. at the very least, Rudi Garcia will optimize his team to return to winning ways and wipe out the rest of the matches with a win. plus, hope Al Ittihad slips in some of his matches. but what is certain, the two teams will compete strictly in the race for the league trophy this season.

Yes, I have no doubt!
In fact, they are one of the richest countries and have had an extremely relevant growth in recent decades.

Well, analyzing it from this perspective, sometimes I keep thinking to myself that there could be a migration of football worldwide...
Currently, European football, they had the best teams in the world and the most relevant football championships around in the world

I speculate and I don't doubt that will happen...
If the countries of the Middle East want to invest in football, and become a reference worldwide, I believe there could be a massive migration of players from European teams to the countries of the Middle East, mainly the Saudi Professional League, you also imagine that this could it happen?

What is your opinion regarding this?

The difference in point is just one point. Already it is known Al - Ittihad is a tough competent that leads the league. Al-Nassr could've made wiser plans and executed. It is difficult, because the team have players who does things responsibly than depending on specific players. Let's see what happens in the next match. I don't think Al-Nassr have got match scheduled against Al - Ittihad.

Al-ittihad has always been the most difficult team for Al-Nassr. And now Al-nassr must be willing to suffer defeat and lose points in this match. So that Al-Nassr is currently in second place. and Al-ittihad now they can smile because they managed to sit at the top of the standings. But I'm pretty sure Al-nassr will get their victory back in the next match. but Al-ittihad would probably do the same. but at least the difference between the two points is not too much. But Al-Nassr must not suffer another defeat. because they have to keep the points difference is still not too much.

Al-Taawoun Vs Al Hilal, currently the score is 0-3 Al Hilal leads very well. Statistically, Hilal was really incredible, they didn't give Taawoun to get a good opportunity and create any goals, and now this match will also to end in the next 5 minutes. Al Taawoun was beaten very bad tonight they are unlucky, Al Hilal success to steal points from them this is very nice game.

This I believe is just a normal thing with majorly all types of sports, there is no where it is written that a team must continue winning or must win all their games to prove that they are good.

Even Argentina suffered a shocking defeat from Saudi Arabia in last year's fifa world cup, but still end up winning the world cup.
I have high hopes that Ronaldo will make his team proud, so personally for me, their defeat is nothing to worry about sincerely.
