Before the game, the Jeddah Nationals, ranked 9th in the Saudi Arabian League, ushered in the 4th round of the Saudi Arabian League, and the Jeddah Nationals sat in their home PK against the 14th-ranked Damac team before the game.
Before the game, Jeddah National had four points, one point behind Cristiano Ronaldo's Riyadh Victory, and only five points behind Jeddah United at the top of the table. The Jeddah National team has stars such as Firmino, Mahrez, Kessie, Ibañez, Mendy, Ivan Toney and other stars in the team, and they are undoubtedly strong contenders for the Saudi Arabian United title this season, and will inevitably become Ronaldo's title rivals.
In the 14th minute of the first half, Ivan Toney on the right side of the field sent a delicate diagonal ball, and the follow-up Bega tackled the ball on the right side of the penalty area to give Jeddah Nationals the lead.
In the ninth minute of first-half stoppage time, Lafata won the ball outside the penalty area on the left side and made an invincible world wave to help Damac equalize.
Just one minute into the second half, Ivan Toney scored from close range to give Jeddah Nationals the lead again.
Twenty minutes later, Shafai's close-range header in front of goal helped Damac equalise again.
In the 104th minute, Firmino gave Jeddah Nationals the lead again.
In the 107th minute, Ivan Toney scored again.
In the end, Jeddah Nationals narrowly defeated Damac to end a two-game winless streak, and after the game, Jeddah Nationals accumulated 7 points and overtook Riyadh Victory 2 points to rise to 5th, and only 2 points behind Jeddah United in 1st, which is obviously bad news for Ronaldo.
