No tension, without play and without a Christian. Al Nassr said goodbye to his chances of going to the Asian Champions after drawing against Tawoon. The disappointing final section of a team that has invested hundreds of millions in building a champion team.
Quite flat game in the first part. A stubborn mané to the crossbar was the best occasion in the first 45 minutes. The weight of the game was brought to Nassr who found the first goal to a stopped ball. Otávio appeared to the first stick and headed to his team. They dominated those of Pioli until Roger Martínez shot the network on the front and placed the tie. Al Nassr says goodbye to the Champions League without its maximum star.
For the second consecutive game, Al Nassr did not have a Christian. Pioli wants to give rest to his maximum star. There is no injury. The team is playing the classification to the next Asian Champions. It has it quite complicated although mathematically has options. First part that developed to what Al Nassr wanted with Durán and Mané leading the attack.
Those of Pioli, much superior technically the rival, did a lot of damage to the backlash and in the second plays. A Barrow shot that stopped Bento at the beginning was the only offensive argument of Al Tawoon. It was to end the 'cooling break' and changing the al nassr. The former Villa and Mané was activated, who had the clearest with a header to the crossbar.
The Nassr came out with the same idea. It soon arrived at the first goal. Corner kick that Otávio heads on the first stick to advance his team. Great auction of the former Porto who anticipated the defense of Al Tawoon and achieved his first goal of the season. Jhon Durán wasted two consecutive occasions to expand the advantage. He was denied with the Colombian goal.
The tawoon reacted well to the onslaught of those of Pioli. Roger Martínez tied the game with a rifle in the area after a pass from the death of Fayçal Fajr, former Getafe. He left the Nassr very wounded that he saw how the Champions League dream escaped. Durán came back with the rival goalkeeper in 86 '. He completely brought him out. Life without Christian is more complicated. Al Nassr says goodbye to the Asian Champions in a season to forget.
