They have money, they don’t have manners. Huge financial resources were allocated by the Saudis in order to attract some of the biggest football stars to their country, and then those same players began to be treated – badly. We are not talking about life threaths or something like that, but rather about lack of respect from the fans, who should enjoy for being able to see big stars playing in their rather weak league. But in Jeddah, where Al Ahly hosted Al Nassr, the home fans showed that they were not up to the competition in which a lot was invested.Otávio gets hit on the head by a water bottle from the stands.Completely unacceptable behavior. Such incidents typically result in a fine of 100,000 SAR ($26,666).#alahli #alnassr #الأهلي_النصرpic.twitter.com/ru74AheIhg— Saudi League BUZZ 🐐 (@SaudiLeagueBuzz) March 15, 2024 At the end of the first half, after Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal (turned out to be disallowed due to offside), a glass filled with water flew from the stands and hit Ottavio in the back of the head. The Brazilian soon resumed the match, which lasted longer than expected due to the interruption. It wasn’t all directed by the fans of the Greens, because even after the decisive goal in the game (then Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal was conceded), they blasted the visiting players with the same arsenal, so dozens of plastic cups fell on the field. Only this time the Al Nassr players were ready. Even for a joke.#AlAhli fans throw water bottles at #AlNassr players, but the players respond with humor and fun. #الأهلي_النصرpic.twitter.com/6ubNQmrqnC— Saudi League BUZZ 🐐 (@SaudiLeagueBuzz) March 15, 2024 This behavior will not hurt the club’s management too much, because according to information from the scene, one thrown glass or water bottle thrown onto the field costs 100,000 Saudi Riyals. In translation, about 26,666 euros. Considering the kind of money that is involved in football there – it sucks. By the way, Al Nassr ended the bad series of results with Ronaldo’s goal from the penalty spot, although they lag behind Al Hilal by as many as nine points, noting that they have a match more.##NAJAVA_MECA_7959276##
