Al Nassr vs Al Ta’ee Live Streaming: Al Nassr on Friday notched up another win against Al Ta’ee in the Saudi Pro League. Brazilian striker Talisca gave Ronaldo and Co the lead in the 32nd minute with a calm finish. Al Ta’ee drew level late in the second half through a beautiful move. Just when it looked like the home side would walk away with a point, the referee awarded a penalty to Al Nassr in the dying stages of the match. Cristiano Ronaldo converted the spot-kick with his usual flare to score for the 10th time in SPL this season. With the win, Al Nassr moved to the third place of Saudi Pro League, overtaking Al Hilal having played a game more.
Al Nassr started the game brightly, dominating the ball and creating chances right from the start. Ronaldo had a few shots on target in the first half which was saved by Al the Ta’ee goalkeeper. The home side had their chances too but they weren’t enough to trouble Alaqidi who started at Al Nassr goal today.
Brazilian striker Talisca scored the first goal of the match around the half-hour mark. Talisca received a ball from the right and placed it at the far post with the outside of his left foot. The ball went beyond the outstretched hands of Braga into the net.
Al Nassr began the second half with a lot of promise too. They controlled the game but failed to find the right pass in the final third. Ronaldo arrived in scoring positions on quite a few occasions, but was let down by his finishing.
Al Ta’ee scored an equaliser against the run of play at the 82nd minute. The Al Nassr defence was caught napping by a quick sequence of passes from the Al Ta’ee players. Virgil Misidjan arrived at the right time to slot home the equaliser.
It looked like Al Ta’ee would go on to claim a point after being the second best team most of the evening. However, Al Nassr earned a late penalty for a handball by Semedo inside the Al Ta’ee box.
Cristiano Ronaldo was never in doubt as he grabbed the ball and walked towards the penalty spot. The Portuguese confidently slotted the ball on goal, making Braga jump the other way. It was Ronaldo’s goal that proved to be the winner as Al Nassr maintained their winning run in the SPL.
