00:00Hello, I'm Martin Fischer. Welcome to Riyadh, round 11 of the Saudi Pro League.
00:11It's Al Nasser versus Al Qadzia.
00:15Just that one change for Al Nasser from their last game two weeks ago.
00:19Talisca injured, so fellow Brazilian Angelo comes in.
00:24Referee tonight, Sergei Ivanov, 40-year-old from Russia.
00:27But his first engagement in the Saudi Pro League.
00:32Al Qadzia also showing a change from their previous league game.
00:36As Akhil Fernandes missing out, so Ali Hazazi steps up.
00:43Al Nasser get us underway then in the yellow shirts and blue shorts.
00:47Third in the table.
00:53Ronaldo in the box, flag stays down as he gets the shot away.
00:56Good stop by Castiles.
00:58Uses his legs to good effect.
01:01It's a difficult chance. It's not an easy chance.
01:04A decent save by Castiles. One you'd expect him to make.
01:10Maldo can't get a touch. Nacho beat him to it.
01:12It drops now for Puertes.
01:14Just fancies his chances here.
01:16And it's a decent save by Bento.
01:19Gets across his goal well, Bento.
01:22Actually takes a deflection of Brozovic there as it goes through.
01:25Increases the dip on the ball.
01:26Goalkeeper can't take any chances.
01:28Concedes the corner.
01:28Mane.
01:38What a chance.
01:39Put over the bar by Garim.
01:42What a chance.
01:43Seems to come off his shin.
01:45I think we've probably just seen the miss of the season in the Saudi Pro League.
01:49Mane does really well.
01:50It's Alec Hazizi.
01:55Bama Yang.
01:56Spectacular overhead.
01:58Wors from Cuenones.
02:00And the Mexican.
02:02And everybody in the stadium.
02:05On their feet.
02:09Goes the cross.
02:10Punched away by Castiles.
02:12Down as far as Angelo.
02:14Switching on to his left foot.
02:16And Castiles drops it.
02:18And Ronaldo pops it home.
02:22Ronaldo.
02:23We've barely seen anything of him in the opening 30 odd minutes here.
02:27But when a chance offers itself.
02:30He's usually on hand to put it away.
02:34Angelo puts the ball in.
02:35No communication or very late communication between goalkeeper and defender.
02:40If you look there.
02:40Nacho ducks last minute.
02:42Goalkeeper leaves himself in a real mess.
02:44Simakam puts the challenge in.
02:45Ronaldo doesn't need asking twice from seven yards out.
02:49Nacho and goalkeeper communication.
02:51Players of their experience you would expect better.
02:53And that famous celebration.
02:57That they're all joining in on now.
03:03Turkey far side.
03:04Faced by Gannem.
03:06Not a bad ball in here.
03:11Weta's with the shot.
03:12And it's in.
03:14Quinonez with it.
03:15It's 1-1.
03:17What a response from Alcantzier.
03:20Weren't behind for long.
03:22Level inside.
03:23Four minutes.
03:24On the left hand side.
03:27Turkey Alomar.
03:28Stands the ball up.
03:30And Quinonez.
03:31Absolutely brilliant.
03:32He reads it so well.
03:33The defender in front of him.
03:35Going for the header.
03:35He just drops off.
03:37Takes it as cool as you like on his chest.
03:39Takes it around the defender.
03:40Not the cleanest of strikes.
03:42Goalkeeper and Simakam on the line make a mess of it.
03:44But Quinonez knows exactly what he's doing.
03:50Lifted forward.
03:51And it's cut back beautifully.
03:54And the deflection takes it over.
03:56Galeem with the opportunity.
03:57Didn't climb that.
03:58Didn't time that particularly well.
04:00Kind of scuffed it a bit.
04:01But at least this time it was on target.
04:04How many opportunities does Garib want in this first half?
04:06He had that glaring miss earlier on from three yards out.
04:09And there's ball towards the far post.
04:11Quinonez in for Obama Yang.
04:13And they have the lead.
04:15Oh the front two combine magnificently there.
04:19And Al-Qadzia lead away to Al-Nassar.
04:25That's brilliant.
04:26Absolutely brilliant play.
04:30It's brilliant by Quinonez.
04:32He's got fantastic ability.
04:34Flexibility.
04:34Agility.
04:35Gets it across the goal to Aubameyang.
04:37Who's got the simplest of tasks.
04:41It's Nawaf at the back post.
04:43Not marking his player.
04:44Quinonez.
04:48Mane.
04:53Ottavio.
04:55It's all a bit tight in there.
04:56Ottavio goes down.
04:58That might be given.
04:58No.
04:59Gihad I think got that challenge wrong.
05:02But the referee waves away the appeals.
05:04VAR will get involved.
05:05VAR will get involved.
05:08Still trying to steal position whenever the opportunity arises.
05:12But here's Mane.
05:13With the cutback.
05:14And the header is off target.
05:15What a chance that for Mane.
05:17Well he hasn't taken his opportunity since coming off the bench Baron.
05:21Glorious opportunity.
05:24It's a fantastic opportunity.
05:25It's a really good ball in by Sadio Mane.
05:27And that is that.
05:34It's all over.
05:36Al Nasser suffer their first league defeat of the season.
05:41That will be the story.
05:42But what a story for Al Qadzia.
05:45Who pick up their first win here since 2008.
05:49Their dangerous front two.
05:51Quinonez and Aubameyang with the goals.
05:54After Ronaldo had put Al Nasser in front on the half hour mark.
05:58Final score.
06:00Al Nasser one.
06:02Al Qadzia two.
