00:00Al-Aziz sports city in Mecca, while Al-Nasr travel to meet the bottom club Al-Waida, both
00:12clubs are playing cats.
00:13They have to bounce back from that if they are to stay in touching distance with you'd
00:17say probably the two that are just ahead.
00:21And Cristiano Ronaldo scored in his first game as a 40 year old but none since.
00:25Yeah, you'd expect him to.
00:27Playing partner this evening, Abdul Rahman Gareeb, given the opportunity.
00:33A long sent, you know that he's got great ability to pick them passes out to the forward
00:37players so he'll be a big loss also.
00:48As we said, Odrio Nogalo and Craig Goodwin and it's a big night for Murad Khadari, the
00:5321 year old who will defeat Al-Atifaq, so Abdul Majid Al-Sulahim and Abdul Rahman Gareeb.
01:03And an hour later than planned, we are underway, Al-Waida in the...
01:09That's probably down to the fact that there's no John Duran.
01:12Retuk took that ball down well but final with Morocco only a couple of years ago.
01:21Stefano Pioli I'm sure.
01:23For Al-Nasr as well and now there's a break forward from Al-Gareeb coming to that central
01:27position the flick from Mahan.
01:29Build up approach play wasn't it?
01:31You just get a little one-two off Ronaldo.
01:34It's that little...
01:35Nasty one there, Al-Fatih, the player who just seemed to lean in to Yahya Naji.
01:42A number of clubs.
01:43It's Al-Waida.
01:44He just let that play go on and the second one he just brought the game to a halt.
01:55Makahasi, the early cross in from him is guided clear by an opportunity for Mane to set Al-Nasr
02:05going again in what's been a rough...
02:08Shish offering the width back towards Ronaldo again, Garib to cause real problems.
02:18Now it's long looking for Ronaldo who moment but here is Al-Gareeb at the other end.
02:24Ronaldo waits in the centre but just makes the wrong run and then Kassarib coming from
02:29that left hand side.
02:30He's trying to look for Cristiano Ronaldo he picks that pass at half time and it's safe
02:35to say they are taking out their frustrations on them.
02:38Al-Garib with the cross in which is difficult.
02:40The post in, taking an advanced position.
02:46Garib with the corner kick, appeals for offside but the flag stays down as Kashish again looks
02:54to... looking to stand his ground for Al-Waida.
02:59Garib will take this, Imp at the heart of midfield.
03:04Ronaldo releasing Kashish on the overlap.
03:08Al-Garib I think maybe he's given Sadio Mane the shape but it looks like maybe...
03:14Infield here, Al-Salahim.
03:18But Bakhshin plays it forward, looking... over 70% possession so far.
03:24Al-Hassan, Abushal, behind him.
03:31Al-Waida come forward again now but the cross in is...
03:36Will he pick out his fellow North African here?
03:39Magoor's delivery, Khaitu was rising to this.
03:43Al-Salahim, Ronaldo again, unable to receive it.
03:48Garib with the...
03:49Sometimes it does come down to confidence.
03:51Garib, now Kashish, Bakhshin with an excellent shot.
03:56Kashish popping up on the right.
04:01Al-Salahim, and that's a foul on Yaya.
04:06Ronaldo makes the move towards the edge of the penalty area but...
04:10Mane just tries to guide that in that far corner.
04:13Doesn't quite get the right...
04:1633 minutes or so.
04:21Mane losing out, just over 16,000.
04:25I'm sure the derby game was the biggest of the campaign so far as the...
04:29Yaya but really easy for Al-Awashir who quickly clears downfield and...
04:36Mark, but...
04:38Really got the strength and depth, have they?
04:42Look at Ben Chua, it creates that momentum, that's all it does.
04:46Khaitu now, on the overlap again, needs to be a good cross but...
04:51First half finishing so...
04:53Ronaldo, able to bring the ball down and the shot is...
04:57But what we are seeing increasingly that there are fewer and fewer...
05:01In inverted commas, easy games as...
05:03Oh, isn't that...
05:05He takes that touch away and...
05:07To me it's a free kick, there's no doubt.
05:14And Garib, one to Kashish, two...
05:17And Yaya, Abushel...
05:20With a crossing opportunity here, manages to go into the penalty...
05:23Now Al-Salahi...
05:26Ronaldo again, making that move but the pass doesn't find him...
05:32But now an opportunity for Ronaldo...
05:36Driven wide and he goes for the...
05:39He's, I don't know, just getting on that Cruyff and then he's trying to bend it...
05:43He's only succeeded in giving the ball to Mane who...
05:46Sprints off down the centre for Al-Nasr but...
05:49The red cross in, headed away by Abushel...
05:53Giannino Bacuna, fires in the shot...
05:56Another thing is that they haven't offered lots going forward...
06:0019, signed from Corinthians...
06:05And Angelo...
06:07And it's Al-Nasr in their famous yellow and blue who...
06:11Get the second half underway, first opportunity...
06:14You know, working on them on the training field, we see a lot more of it, don't we?
06:19McGuire, with a longer delivery this time from him but...
06:22Angelo now has got space...
06:26Comes inside onto that left foot, good delivery!
06:28It's got pace on it, it's going towards the goalkeeper, all it needs...
06:32Is that final touch and that's what the two substitutes have been brought on...
06:37Moseley and Angelo and they've just produced...
06:39With yet another assist this season...
06:43And Cristiano Ronaldo...
06:46That man Cristiano Ronaldo is...
06:48Any time a ball is put in an area where he...
06:51That Ronaldo was waiting for...
06:54And Cristiano Ronaldo opens the...
06:56In 29 games...
07:00And 17 in 21 now...
07:03They're going behind so this is something that they really need to hold on tight to...
07:09McGuire with the free kick...
07:10Identity was that Ronaldo...
07:13Corner kick, Alfred Thiel...
07:16Challenging and...
07:17They've got 44 points...
07:20And there would still be 12 games to play after this one...
07:23There's still plenty of football unity to go and...
07:25Get as high up in the table as you possibly can and that's...
07:28How tight it is...
07:30Again is on the move, Mane waits in the centre, pull back slightly behind him...
07:35Mane...
07:37That's in, is cleared as far as Bacuna...
07:40Alalehi...
07:41Oh that's a good ball into the penalty area...
07:43Kaddouri...
07:44Wader in the box...
07:45Gets control of it, the ball in here...
07:47Defenders are all over the place as well...
07:50Wader here...
07:51We've got wide open spaces on the left...
07:54Alalehi...
07:58Will take this...
08:01And it's an outswinger again...
08:03In fact...
08:04Bakhshouin...
08:06Aliyamic...
08:09He's given away to...
08:10A player who plays his...
08:12International football for Iraq but...
08:14Bought in Germany and came through...
08:16They made the mistake of doing that...
08:19Obviously in their last outing...
08:21I think getting that second goal is going to be...
08:26Ronaldo...
08:28Mosulahim will get the free life...
08:31At the wrong end of the Roshan Saudi League...
08:36Amir...
08:37Caused his own problems...
08:39Almost half a little bit of cramp over stretching...
08:43Keep losing games, conceding goals...
08:46Don't really look like scoring neither do they so...
08:49Amir...
08:51No flag, Goodwin waits at the far post...
08:54Amir with the cross...
08:55Almost found Goodwin...
08:56Of course Al Nassawa a goal up with eight minutes to play on Friday and...
08:59Lost...
09:02Aliyamic with the routine...
09:04Won't get into the game...
09:06Here is Mane...
09:07Space for him now...
09:08He can come back onto the left...
09:10And in the end...
09:12It is Al Nasser who come forward now...
09:15Mane played in by Wesley and...
09:22Angelo scoops it in but the head...
09:26It's down the line looking for Al Aissa...
09:41Ivan Toni with his second penalty of the game has put Al Akhli forward...
09:45I think that's six penalties for him now as well in the Roshan Saudi League...
09:51And that's what they appear to have done...
09:54Ronaldo hits this, it pings off the wall...
09:57Does it but he's protecting himself there...
10:03In the Roshan Saudi League...
10:08And Mane steps up and he...
10:10Tucks it home and does look a comfortable result does it but...
10:14It was nowhere near a comfortable position...
10:17In the race for the Asian Champions League...
10:20Well composed...
10:21The full-time whistle has gone...
10:24And they are back up into third place at the moment...
