SPL: Sadio Mané scores, Al-Nassr falls again!

Al-Nassr failed to break its poor run of form, losing once again this Friday, beaten 2-1 by a very inspired Al Qadsiah team during the 28th round of the Saudi Pro League.

A tense and hard-fought duel

From the kickoff, Al-Nassr found itself under pressure against a well-organized opponent. The unstoppable Gabonese superstar Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang used his speed and game intelligence to deliver an assist for Al Qadsiah's first goal.

Despite some flashes, Cristiano Ronaldo remained quiet, leaving Sadio Mané and Otavio to lead the attacks.

Mané's gem, Aubameyang's brilliance

In the 85th minute, the Senegalese captain leveled the score with a superb sequence: after a brilliant pass from Otavio, he controlled the ball in the box and unleashed an unstoppable cross-shot. Video:

However, two minutes later, Aubameyang struck again to seal Al-Nassr's fate with a decisive second goal.

This marks the fifth league defeat for Mané's teammates, now trailing eight points behind leaders Al-Ittihad with six games remaining.
