Al Nassr secured a dominant 5-1 win over Al Ahli in the Saudi Pro League, overcoming an early deficit to take control. Kingsley Coman netted a hat-trick, while Angelo provided multiple assists. The result moves Al Nassr closer to silverware in the AFC Champions League.
Al Nassr faced early pressure from Al Ahli, who earned a penalty in the opening 10 minutes when Inigo Martínez fouled Erik Exposito. Julian Draxler's spot-kick was saved by goalkeeper Bento, but Sekou Yansane soon gave the visitors the lead moments later. Al Nassr responded swiftly, with Kingsley Coman equalizing two minutes after a move involving Angelo. Angelo then scored himself in the 23rd minute, assisted by Sadio Mané, putting the hosts ahead 2-1. Coman added his second in first-half stoppage time for a 3-1 halftime lead. In the second half, Al Nassr maintained dominance. Mané struck the post early on, and Cristiano Ronaldo had chances denied or missed. Coman completed his hat-trick in the 64th minute from another Angelo pass. Abdullah Al-Hamdan sealed the 5-1 scoreline in the 80th minute, again assisted by Angelo, during a counter-attack. Substitutions kept Al Nassr's momentum intact throughout.
