Al-Ittihad have claimed a crucial victory against rivals Al-Nassr in a highly anticipated clash between the top two teams in the Saudi Pro League. Brazilian star Romarinho was the hero for the hosts, as he scored the only goal of the game to secure a 1-0 win.

The match was tightly contested throughout, with both teams creating numerous chances but struggling to convert them. However, Al-Ittihad eventually broke the deadlock in the 60th minute, when Romarinho latched onto a cross and coolly finished past the Al-Nassr goalkeeper.

The final whistle blew shortly afterwards, and Al-Ittihad celebrated a crucial victory that sees them move to the top of the Saudi Pro League table. It was a tense and dramatic match, but in the end, it was Romarinho’s goal that proved decisive.
