The seventh day of the local championship in Saudi Arabia has ended. About all the most important events – in the material of “Soviet Sport”.
Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo is considered a pioneer among world-class stars. He has been in the league longer than anyone else and has had better time to adapt to the particularities of the local championship. Ronaldo’s double is no longer something extraordinary. Rather, everything remains the same.

Thus, in the match against Al-Ahly, Ronaldo recharged his batteries and scored two goals. It was his goals that allowed Al-Nasr to achieve victory in a very tense fight. The Portuguese scored in the fourth minute and Senegalese star Sadio Mané helped him. In the 17th minute, Brazilian Anderson Talisca doubled the lead (by the way, he came to the team even before Ronaldo). Former Barcelona footballer Franck Kessier responded with a goal. Talisca then scored and passed the ball to Ronaldo to score the goal. Among the stars of Al-Ahly we also highlight Riyad Mahrez’s penalty goal. The most surprising match of the tour ended with a score of 4-3.

But the Brazilian Neymar lost points again. At first, his club could not beat Navbahor from Uzbekistan in the local Champions League, and now Al-Hilal lost to the outsider of the Saudi Arabian Championship, Damak. Again 1:1. And former Zenit player Malcolm can probably be nominated for the title of main star. He has six goals and two assists in seven games. This is what RPL does to people!

Frenchman N’Golo Kante leads Al Ittihad to gold. He scored the winning goal in the match against Al-Fat. His team beat its rival 2-1. For the first goal, the Frenchman acted as an assistant. But his compatriot Karim Benzema does not appear in the lineup for the second time in a row. Local media report that he has a conflict with coach Espirito Santo.

Another brilliant game was played by Georginio Wijnaldum and Moussa Dembélé. Both Al-Ittifaq players scored a double in the match against Al-Tai. And former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson helped them with passing. Bernard Mensah scored a brilliant hat-trick for the visitors.

We also take note of Al-Shabab’s overwhelming victory over Al-Hazm. Yannick Carrasco and Éver Banega managed to shine in this match. The Argentine has a double and a goal. Carrasco scored “1+1”. The final score is 4:1.
According to the results of seven rounds, Al-Ittihad, in which Kanté and Benzema play, leads the Saudi Arabian Championship. The team has 18 points. But the team of Neymar and Malcolm “Al-Hilal” lost first place. They have one point less. Ronaldo’s Al-Nasr is only fifth so far. But the Club has already won seven in a row. Things are clearly improving.
