Angry and desperate screaming. I know March Cristiano Ronaldo of the match against al taawon. Al-Nassr I lost 0-2 against Álvaro Medrón’s team. Second consecutive game with loss in the league for those of Luis Castro.
The locals start as favourites. And it is that he Al-Nassr has an all-star cast to win the Saud Pro League and prevail overwhelmingly over most Arab teams. However the Al-Taawon, without great acquaintances, has managed to prevail on the scoreboardand even keep the goalkeeper clean.
Cristiano, Man, Talisca and company they seemed to have wet gunpowder. None of them managed to hit the crosses of their teammates, and they only managed to generate an “oops” in the stands with their missed chances. The one who was best was Man who tried insistently from the sides, with good driving and dribbling that did not find a final finisher.
For his part, Cristiano was surrounded throughout the game by three rival defenses. The Portuguese star isolated, just deranged both in the first half and at the end of the match. Pissed off with an angry gesture and yelling at the referee and his teammates.
thick first part
Those of Luis Castro they wasted the first 45 minutes. They were disconnected and failed to disturb the goal defended by Mailson. Also, in the 18th minute they took a hard blow: Al-Taawon scored with a header from a corner. The Cameroonian striker Tawamba was thus ahead of the visiting team.
From that moment on, the Al-Nassr sought to recover from the hard blow turning over the rival area. However, the necessary imbalance did not arrive to move the marker. Long possessions, but without any danger. Only a penalty awarded on Fofana put honey in the mouths of the locals, a momentary joy, because the referee rectified and annulled it with the help of VAR.
Al-Taawon escapes ‘miraculously’ and sentences
The general ineffectiveness shown by Al-Nassr in the first part seemed to change in the second. Luis Castro’s men came out with one more march, perhaps because of the talk in the locker room at halftime. It was better than the rival, with very clear chances, and even a disallowed goal for Man. But Al-Taawon managed to sentence the counter in stoppage time.
In this way, Cristiano’s men stayed again without scoring, second game in a row and with an image that has nothing to do with the one shown by the team in the tournament they won this summer, the Arab Club Champions Cup.
