Al Nassr suffered a 2-3 loss to Al-Ettifaq in matchday 21 of the Arab League. Jhon Durán played the full 90 minutes, but despite his efforts, he couldn’t score and was sent off with a red card in injury time.
Durán's Performance
Even though Durán had a knock from the previous match, he trained normally and started the game. He quickly became involved, with his first two shots on goal early in the game. Although both attempts were close, they didn’t find the back of the net.
Durán played a key role in the offense, helping set up Cristiano Ronaldo with a powerful shot that hit the post. He continued to make his presence felt, using his physical strength to push past defenders and find spaces. His most promising opportunity came with a left-footed shot from a distance, but it was deflected wide by the Al-Ettifaq goalkeeper, Marek Rodák.
Durán took five shots in total, winning two duels out of four and completing one dribble. Unfortunately, he was shown a red card for an attack on an opponent late in the match, which left Al Nassr with 10 men.
Al Nassr’s Setback
The loss meant that Al Nassr dropped to fourth place in the Arab League standings, now with 44 points. This defeat came at a crucial time as they continue to battle for a top position. The team will need to bounce back quickly in their next match.
