Transcript

00:00Match Week 22 continues in the Roshan Saudi League at the King Abdulaziz Sports City in Mecca

00:12while Al Nasser travel to meet the bottom club Al-Waida. Al Nasser some way short of full strength

00:18for this game against an Al-Waida side who are currently bottom of the Roshan Saudi League.

00:26Only three victories so far this season and for them their recent form is very poor.

00:33Four successive defeats and they may have gone to Al-Khulud with hopes of taking something away from home at the weekend.

00:46And an hour later than planned we are underway.

00:50Al-Waida in the red shirts defending the goal away to our left.

00:54In the first half.

00:58Coming to the league so a couple of games and you do start to question don't you whether

01:04or when it's going to stop but you have every faith in what Cristiano Ronaldo is all about.

01:11And a clash of heads here so there will be treatment for both players.

01:20A nasty one there. Al-Fatil the player who just seemed to lean in to Yaya Najee and both really took the brunt of that.

01:29Yeah both going for the ball and see why it's been a halting play.

01:33Now Enric Laporte is coming off the field of play as well and Salim El-Nasdi was rather just feeling at his hamstring even before he came on.

01:44It's a promising sign you can see that the Kato just behind the hamstring there.

01:52High line from Al-Nasdi at the moment but here is Al-Ghariba at the other end.

01:56Ronaldo waits in the centre but just makes the wrong run and then Kashish with the shot which was blocked by the legs of Al-Ohashir.

02:04Yeah and then a longer range effort this time from Yaya but it was dragged wide.

02:11Yeah it's much better.

02:13Al-Nasdi you can see that run that we touched on.

02:17Al-Ghariba coming from that left hand side he's trying to look for Cristiano Ronaldo.

02:21He picks that pass. It's not a bad ball is it really because it ends up coming right out to this left hand side where...

02:28Al-Hassan alongside Al-Sulahim at the heart of midfield.

02:39Ronaldo releasing Kashish on the overlap and Gharib arriving to volley over the top but I think the better option may have been Sadio Mane.

02:47Yeah I think maybe.

02:58Getting results it creates that momentum. That's all it does.

03:04Kretu now on the overlap again. Needs to be a good cross but it's helped away by Najdi but Bakuna.

03:11Giving the room to come inside and it's the first effort on target but it's comfortable for Bento.

03:17Yeah that's...

03:18You see the likes of Bakuna getting on the ball as he does here. There's a slight nick off the bottom with a boot there.

03:28But now an opportunity for Ronaldo.

03:37Driven wide and he goes for the curler. Fisted away by Al-Ohashia.

03:42He's just going on that Cruyff and then he's trying to bend it. You can see what he's trying to do.

03:47Angelo now has got space.

03:56Comes inside onto that left foot. Good delivery!

03:59And it's the sort of delivery that Ronaldo was waiting for.

04:04And Cristiano Ronaldo opens the goal scoring.

04:07What a goal. What a goal.

04:11As I said, the front two need service and that's what the two substitutes have been brought on.

04:17Mosley and Angelo.

04:18And they've just produced. That's what it's all about.

04:20It's putting good delivery into the boxes.

04:22Getting the ball into wide areas where we know Al Nasser are very, very good.

04:27And we know how good that man Cristiano Ronaldo is any time a ball is put in an area where he can run onto.

04:36Utilising that half a yard, that pace and then the power.

04:40I mean it's absolutely brilliant.

04:41And that's all down to the ball.

04:43And Angelo, it's got pace on it.

04:45It's going towards the goalkeeper.

04:47All it needs is that final touch.

04:50And the main man Cristiano Ronaldo gets that right in that far corner.

04:53No chance for the goalkeeper.

04:55Well, credit to Pioli.

04:59He made the changes.

05:01And Angelo has come up with yet another assist this season.

05:06And Cristiano Ronaldo on the score sheet once again in the Roshan Saudi League.

05:1266 in 69 games.

05:18And O'Lehli.

05:19Oh, that's a good ball into the penalty area.

05:21Qadari!

05:22Oh, what a chance.

05:24But he puts it wide.

05:26And he has to score.

05:28I mean it's not the easiest of opportunity.

05:30But it's the best one by Farfoot and O'Lehler in the box.

05:37Abusha.

05:39He's been given away.

05:40Back to Swin.

05:41Amien.

05:41Gave Bento the opportunity to move across.

05:54It's a fantastic point you make because I think complacency can come so far into it.

06:00You can come up against sides that you just feel that it's going to be routine.

06:04They won't get into the game.

06:06Here is Mane.

06:07Space for him now.

06:08He can come back onto the left foot.

06:11And it whistles across the face of goal.

06:14He claims the deflection.

06:15Yeah, he was always chasing that ball down to get the right amount of power and try to guide it in.

06:27And that's a nice one-two with Al-Sulahi.

06:29Mane goes for goal, but it's cut out by Al-Makahasi.

06:33It will be a corner.

06:34In towards Al-Oasir, the goalkeeper, Al-Yamik rather took it away from him.

06:45Wesley.

06:46And Ronaldo!

06:48Just wide.

06:49Appeals for offside as well.

06:52He might well have just strayed offside.

06:55Ronaldo, this will give us a better view.

06:57Actually, I think he's onside.

06:59I think it's Al-Yamik that just plays him on.

07:02Just needs that touch on it.

07:04Like the goal, really.

07:06Decent little ball in there.

07:10Almost threading the ball through towards Al-Isir, but Al-Nasa will clear.

07:18Angelo.

07:20And he's taken out by Al-Yamik.

07:22And the match will finish here with an Al-Nasa free kick.

07:27Yeah, brilliant play.

07:29Just taking the ball up the pitch.

07:31Angelo.

07:32And in that free kick.

07:34I'm sure that we will see.

07:36This was a match which was all about getting the job done for Al-Nasa.

07:40And that's what they appear to have done.

07:44Ronaldo hits this.

07:45It pings off the wall.

07:48Over the top and it will be a corner.

07:50Ronaldo claiming handball.

07:51Yeah, he said so, didn't he?

07:53He said off the tip of the shoulder.

07:57Put an elbow out there.

07:59.

08:00What's up?

08:01That was Danino Bakuna.

08:05Ronaldo's convinced.

08:12Penalty.

08:12And El Nasser have the opportunity to finish things off here

08:21Five goals so far this season for Sadio Mane in the Roshan Saudi League

08:28And Mane steps up and he makes no mistake

08:36And El Nasser are back in pole position in the race for the Asian Champions League

08:41And then this composed penalty from Sadio Mane absolutely brilliant

08:46Just tucks it home and does look a comfortable result, doesn't it?

08:50But it's nowhere near a comfortable 2-0 result whatsoever

08:54But El Nasser have the victory, the full-time whistle has gone

09:02And they are back up into third place at the moment in the Roshan Saudi League

09:07Ronaldo with the header early in the second half

09:10Mane with the penalty right at the end

09:13And Alveda remain bottom, full-time

09:17Alveda nil, El Nasser 2
