Al-Nassr dépasse Al-Taawoun avec des tirs en seconde période

Al-Taawoun struck first to unsettle the home side, with B. Al-Hurayji finding the net in the 11th minute. Al-Nassr would have been frustrated by the early setback, but they steadied themselves as the first half progressed.

The turning point arrived just before the interval when S. Costa equalised in the 45th minute, lifting the hosts level heading into the break. The momentum swung decisively Al-Nassr's way after the restart. Cristiano Ronaldo restored their advantage five minutes into the second half with a clinical finish at the 50-minute mark.

S. Alnajdi received a yellow card in the 20th minute, a caution that proved inconsequential to the outcome. Al-Taawoun mounted some resistance but could not find a way past Al-Nassr's defence in the closing stages. The away side's early promise evaporated as they failed to capitalise on their bright start.

Al-Nassr secured the three points with a 2-1 victory, completing their comeback with ruthless efficiency in the second period. The result marked a strong response from the home team after going behind early in the contest, with C. Ronaldo's 50th-minute goal ultimately settling the match.
