Mané And Félix Fire 10-Man Al Nassr Into Saudi Super Cup Final
Sadio Mané and João Félix struck as 10-man Al Nassr edged Al Ittihad 2-1 in a dramatic Saudi Super Cup semi-final on Tuesday in Hong Kong, securing their place in the final despite a first-half red card. Mané opened the scoring in the 10th minute, converting a precise pass from Croatian midfielder Marcelo Brozović to give Al Nassr an early advantage after a dominant start. But Al Ittihad hit back quickly. Dutch winger Steven Bergwijn capitalized on defensive confusion to equalize in the 16th minute, making it 1-1 and resetting the tempo of a frenetic first half. The match took a major turn in the 25th minute when Saudi referee Khalid Al-Turais showed a straight red card to Mané, reducing Nassr to 10 men and raising questions about their ability to sustain pressure. Yet even down a man, Al Nassr showed resilience and tactical discipline. Led by Brozović in midfield and with Cristiano Ronaldo orchestrating attacks, the Riyadh giants remained in control. The decisive moment came in the 60th minute. Ronaldo slipped a perfectly weighted ball through to Félix, who calmly slotted past the Ittihad goalkeeper. The goal was briefly reviewed by VAR but stood, giving Al Nassr a deserved lead once again. Despite late pressure from Ittihad, including waves of attacks in the final minutes, Al Nassr's defense held firm. The backline, buoyed by a cohesive team effort, managed to repel every attempt as the team closed out a gutsy win. Ronaldo's vision and leadership, along with Brozović's control and Félix's clinical finishing, ensured Al Nassr booked their place in the August 23 final, where they will face the winner of Wednesday's semi-final between Al Ahli and Al Qadsiah.

📹 Mané almost the villain, Ronaldo assists, João Félix hero as Al-Nassr reach final
The first of potentially many Al-Nassr versus Al-Ittihad matches of the season ended with a victory and a spot in the final for Cristiano Ronaldo's team. Mané - who would later be sent off - and João Félix, after a pass from the "Robozao," secured the spot in the Saudi Super Cup final with a 2-1 win over Benzema's team. The match was played at the Hong Kong Stadium. Al-Ahli (who inherited the spot from Al-Hilal) and Al-Qadsiah face off this Wednesday (20th) in the other semi-final. The team that participated in the last Club World Cup gave up the tournament to focus on their pre-season. What was that, Mané? It only took ten minutes for Jorge Jesus's new team to open the scoring after Mané completed Brozovic's cross. The equalizer came shortly after, with Diaby (16'). The sequence saw Mané being sent off after a clash with a stomp on goalkeeper Yousef. CR7, the humble It was up to Cristiano Ronaldo to make the difference in the final stage. In a counterattack, he found himself face to face with Youseff. But he chose to assist his compatriot João Félix. João Félix would score another, but the goal was disallowed for a foul. Cristiano Ronaldo is in pursuit of only his second trophy with the Al-Nassr jersey. He has only won the Arab Champions Cup, a lesser tournament, in 2023.

Mané Dias Launches ‘Ink Between Worlds' Sessions, A Ritual Tattoo Experience in San Francisco & Phoenix.
In the latest record, Mané Dias launches 'In Between Worlds' sessions, rooted in memory, migration, and emotional storytelling at a time. Combining technical skill with artistic vision, she reveals its invisible architecture: grief, transformation, exile, desire. Her work lives in the emotional liminal spaces between art and ritual, client and artist, chaos and calm, offering tattoos built to endure. Working out of Sasha Tattooing Essential, Mané's designs are whispered statements, minimalistic in form, yet profound in meaning. Each line, curve, and shadow carries the weight of myth, memory, and motion. Drawing inspiration from the beauty and intricacies of the natural world, her style embraces realism in its purest form. Mané Dias' tattoos possess a remarkable ability to capture the essence of her subjects, whether it's the lifelike rendering of a delicate flower, the intricate details of an animal portrait, or the awe-inspiring depiction of a landscape. Each stroke of her tattoo machine is infused with precision and passion, resulting in mesmerizing artworks that appear to come to life on the skin. In addition, she strives to infuse her tattoos with a touch of individuality, working closely with clients to incorporate their personal stories and desires into the designs. This collaborative approach ensures that every tattoo she creates is visually captivating as well as deeply meaningful to the wearer. With a sense of reinvention, Mané Dias has a deep respect for what she'd brought with her. Her American chapter includes regular stops in San Francisco and Phoenix, and a growing clientele who come not just for the aesthetic, but for the experience. Mané's sessions feel ceremonial - intimate, intuitive, collaborative. Furthermore, Mané favors a minimalist setup - a wireless pen machine, simple round liners, and subtle shading that mimics the texture of pencil on paper. About Mané Dias Mané Dias, a rare talent artist, is now based in San Francisco. Born on December 31, 1998, in Yerevan, Armenia, and raised in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, Mané's early life was defined by displacement and dual identity. Her childhood was marked by the anxiety of fitting in - and the quiet rebellion of refusing to. As a child, she staged imaginary performances, covered her face in glitter, and tore apart books to taste their pages. She drew on walls, and when she discovered tattoos, she saw them as something sacred - alive, permanent, and entirely her own. By 2018, her minimalist yet emotionally resonant designs gained traction on Instagram. In 2022, everything changed. Mané fled to Vienna, working briefly at Hyper Human studio before returning home - unable to leave for personal reasons but unwilling to stop. She traveled Europe to tattoo - Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Warsaw, Milan, Bucharest - bringing her signature symbolism to clients across the continent. Alongside tattooing, she continued to create fine art - charcoal-heavy, earth-toned works that felt raw and unfinished, just like the moment. Her pieces appeared in Eye Sea Gallery in Kyiv, the Lviv Art Center, and Modern City Hub in Zaporizhzhia. She even collaborated with the Ukrainian fashion label Nothing Holy to launch a capsule collection based on her tattoo designs. 'My job is to hold space,' she says. 'Some clients want to talk. Some want to sit in silence. Both are means of connection.' Tattooing is her language, her tool for emotional cartography. With each client, each design, each shared moment of stillness, she maps out new coordinates - between memory and body, between exile and home.

Saudi Gazette report RIYADH — Al Nassr surged into third place in the Saudi Pro League with a 3-1 victory over Al Kholood on Friday, capitalizing on Al Qadsiah's defeat to Damac in Round 25 of the competition.

Moments later, Al Kholood thought they had equalized through Miziane Maolida, but VAR ruled it offside. Al Nassr doubled their lead in the 26th minute when Salem Al-Najdi delivered a pinpoint cross that Mané met with a sublime first-time finish into the net. Durán added a third just four minutes before halftime, collecting a pass from Angelo Gabriel and firing a low shot past the keeper. Al Nassr holds firm despite red card Al Nassr had to play the final half-hour with 10 men after Nawaf Boushal received a second yellow card. Head coach Stefano Pioli responded with a triple substitution in the 61st minute, bringing on Abdulmajeed Al-Sulaiheem, Ayman Yahya, and Majid Fashish for Ronaldo, Gabriel, and Ali Al-Hassan. Al Kholood pulled a goal back in the 72nd minute when Jackson Muleka's shot deflected off Ali Lajami and past goalkeeper Bento Matheus. Mané thought he had restored Al Nassr's three-goal lead three minutes later, but his strike was ruled out for a foul in the buildup. With the win, Al Nassr moved level on 51 points with Al Qadsiah but climbed to third on goal difference. Al Kholood remains 10th with 31 points.
