Hong Kong, Hong Kong – Football lovers, make una gather, because the Saudi Super Cup don waka enter play! Na Al-Nassr go face Al-Ittihad for the semifinal on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, and no be joke, the tension dey high!
This year, Saudi Arabian Football Federation don decide say the tournament go happen for Hong Kong, from 19 to 23 August. Abi una sabi sey Al-Ittihad don win both the King Cup and Saudi Pro League, so dem get double entry. Because of that, dem give the spot wey suppose go to the runners-up Al-Hilal to third-placed team for league.
Al-Ittihad don dey shine for this Super Cup things, because dis go be their fifth appearance, and dem don carry the trophy before, back in 2022. But as dem dey come face Al-Nassr, we go see if dem fit match dem with di same intensity! Last season, Al-Ittihad show serious gits when dem beat Al-Nassr 2-1 and 3-2 in di league.
But abeg, no forget say Al-Nassr dey come strong too! Na dem second Super Cup appearance back-to-back after dem waka finish second to Al-Hilal last season. Dem don collect di trophy before, and dey gats prove sey dem still get fire for dem belly!
Afta dem mixup during summer friendlies (where dem dey lose wey-hola, eh? 😂), Al-Nassr don manage to show some better performance. But Al-Ittihad don get small wahala for back line due to injury wey don affect dem goalkeeper and some defenders. Na wetin be this? Time for Al-Nassr to flex!
The coaches for both side go try to manage injury situation, as Al-Nassr go miss midfielde Sami Al-Najai wey dey recover from injury. Al-Ittihad self go find am tough without their first-choice goalkeeper! This na the time to shine for school head, abi dem go mess up?
We fit expect plenty excitement as both teams dey get plenty attacking quality. Al-Ittihad get players like Benzema and Diaby, and di attacking farm way Al-Nassr don arrange no be beans. If dem fit find their rhythm, den na fire dem go scatter for di pitch!
As both sides dey prepare, make e clear sey na time to show who dey wear di crown. Hope sey players fit deliver, because if them no perform, e fit turn wahala. We dey look forward to a great match – na only strong team go carry di day!
