In the 20th stage of the championship in Saudi Arabia, Al Okhdood, a football team taken over by the Romanian coach Marius Șumudică, drew on Monday evening, at home, with Neom SC, a team coached by the Frenchman Christophe Galtier.
Togolese Khaled Narey, who had missed a penalty last time, opened the scoring in the 4th minute, and the table looked like it would remain frozen until the end.
However, the 85th minute came, when the Frenchman Alexandre Lacazette equalized with a shot from 11 meters and robbed Şumi of the joy of victory.
The hosts finished with 10 men, after Saudi Naif Asiri was sent off in the 90th+1st minute.
Šumudiča took the place of the Portuguese Paulo Sergio, and since then he has achieved only one win and two draws in seven games.
Ronaldo, on strike
Also today, the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo kept his promise and did not perform in the match Al Riyadh – Al Nassr 0-1. It decided the success of the Senegalese Sadio Mane, from the 40th minute. The African fruited the pass of the Portuguese Joao Felix.
Al Okhdood ranks 17th, penultimate, with 10 points. The first league has 18 teams, and the bottom three are relegated directly. In 15th place, Al Riyadh has 12 points.
Neom is in 9th place, with 25 points. The leader of the championship is Al Hilal, with 47 points. Simone Inzaghi’s team is followed by Al Nassr (46 points) and Al Ahli (44 points).
