King Cup: Al Nassr Dunk Jeddah with 4-0 in round of 32 collision while Ronaldo looks van Bench


Al Nassr steamed over Jeddah on Wednesday and won a 4-0 win in their King Cup match in the Prince Abdullah Alfaisal Sports City on Wednesday.

The team, based in Riyad, started as the tough favorite against the second division, which is probably the reason why Jorge Jesus kept all his big stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, Kingsley Coman and Joao Felix on the bench.

While Coman, Mane and Felix came from the bank to play their role in the collision, the Al Nassr manager Ronaldo gave complete rest, while remaining an unused replacement.

Under pressure to play against a heavyweight such as Al Nassr, Jeddah had the worst start after defender Faisal Othman had put the ball in his own net in the fifth minute.

The dominance of Al Nassr was clear in the number of shots it took on the goal and the possession that it enjoyed during the collision. While the men of Jesus had 14 shots on goal, they ended the match with 72 percent of the ball.

Jeddah gave the lead of Al Nassr to just one before half -time, but the locks opened in the second 45.

Wesley doubled the lead of Al Nassr in the 61st minute after he was set up by Abdulrahman Ghareeb.

Despite a lead of two goals, Jesus did not lean back and sent Mane, Felix and Coman in an attempt to see his team score more goals.

Coman and Felix made an impact within eight minutes of their replacement, with the last score and the Frenchman assisted.

In the 89th minute, Felix became provider when he set up Mohamed Simakan, who scored the fourth of Al Nassr to complete the routes.

Al Nassr then already plays Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League, while Jeddah will travel for an away game against Al Jabalain in the Saudi First Division League.
