Ronaldo still has a chance to win the Saudi Arabia championship

Karim Benzema helps Al Ittihad escape defeat.

In the 26th round of the Saudi Arabian Premier League (SPL), Al Ittihad almost lost if it weren't for Benzema's late equalizer in injury time. The former Real Madrid star didn't play well throughout the match, but his decisive moment helped Al Ittihad retain a valuable away point.

Their draw opens the door for their rivals to catch up. Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr, with a 3-1 win over Al Hilal in the same round, are now only eight points behind Al Ittihad with eight games remaining.

This is still a big gap, but the opportunity is clearly not over for Al Nassr if they maintain their impressive form, but at the same time, Al Ittihad continues to decline in recent times. Previously, there was a time when Al Nassr was 13 points behind Al Ittihad.

Al Hilal, the team currently ranked second, is also only 5 points behind Al Ittihad. Currently, Al Ittihad has a clear advantage in the race for the SPL 2024/25 title, but they will meet Al Nassr in round 30.

Coach Stefano Pioli also believes that in football "anything can happen", especially after Ronaldo and his teammates were on fire following an impressive 3-1 victory over Al Hilal.

Depay's magical touches Memphis Depay both assisted and scored in Corinthians' 3-0 win over Vasco da Gama in the second round of the 2025 Brazilian National Championship on the morning of April 6.
