Ronaldo leads Al Nassr past Al Ittihad to reach Saudi Super Cup final

HONG KONG -- Al Nassr beat Al Ittihad 2-1 in the Saudi Super Cup semifinals at Hong Kong Stadium on Tuesday, with marquee player Cristiano Ronaldo assisting Joao Felix for the winner. This year's Saudi Super Cup held in Hong Kong features four teams across two semifinals and a final. More than 30,000 fans, most of whom are apparently Ronaldo supporters, packed the ground for the opening semifinal. Ronaldo and Felix started for Al Nassr, while Al Ittihad fielded Karim Benzema and N'Golo Kante. Al Nassr struck first after 10 minutes when Marcelo Brozovic surged down and pulled back for Sadio Mane, who finished with a first-time volley. Al Ittihad got back on level terms five minutes later, when Moussa Diaby laid it off for Steven Bergwijn to find the net. Mane went from hero to zero minutes later as he was sent off for an awful challenge on opposite goalkeeper Hamed Al Shanqiti. With one player down, Al Nassr nevertheless restored the lead in the 61st minute when Ronaldo sprung the offside trap and selflessly squared for Felix to tap it into the empty net. The winner helped Al Nassr secure a spot in the final.

We are not only shaping footballers, but raising young men with values. 'Every title is a step forward in building generations of Omanis who deserve to compete at the highest levels.' The evening was more than just a sports event – it was a celebration of Dhofar, the land of fog, sea, and beauty, which once again showcased its ability to host events of national prestige. The KAAS League concluded with grandeur, uniting football legends, academies, and fans in a festival of fair competition and professional organization. The cup presentation was accompanied by a symbolic parade, as Ford cars carried the trophy in front of cheering crowds, adding to the night's splendor. Other Winners: Seeb Club Academy dominated the younger categories, winning three titles in U-10, U-12, and U-14 age groups – a performance widely praised by both fans and officials. Speaking at the conclusion, Dr. Al Ghassani praised the professionalism of the organization, crediting Muscat Media Group for delivering a high-quality event for the second consecutive year. He also highlighted the dual potential of sports and tourism in Dhofar, affirming the governorate's readiness to host events of this scale in the future.
