VARIOUS OF PLAYERS AFTER FINAL WHISTLE STORY: Ivan Toney scored twice and provided one assist as Al-Ahli handed Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr their first Saudi Pro League defeat of the season with a 3-2 victory on Friday (January 2). Toney put the hosts ahead with a quick-fire double, opening the scoring seven minutes into the game before adding a second 13 minutes later. However, Al-Nassr fought back to level before halftime, with defender Abdulelah Al-Amri netting twice – first with a powerful long-range strike and then with a header. The decisive moment came in the second half when Toney turned provider, teeing up Merih Demiral with a clever flick inside the box for the Turkish defender to slot home the winner. The defeat snapped Al-Nassr's 11-match unbeaten run that included a record start to the league season of 10 consecutive wins that came to an end with a 2-2 draw at Al-Ettifaq last Tuesday. Al-Nassr still top the standings and are two points clear of second-placed Al-Hilal who have a game in hand. Al-Ahli are fourth on 25 points. (Production: Kurt Michael Hall)
