Al Nassr has a better-quality squad and soon proved its strength by scoring three goals against Inter Miami in just over 10 minutes. In the 3rd minute, Otavio dribbled the ball comfortably and then shot a strong shot, defeating the opponent’s goalkeeper. 7 minutes later, it was Anderson Talisca’s turn to put his name on the electronic board with an accurate run and close-range finish.
By the 12th minute, the score was 3-0 in favor of Al Nassr. Aymeric Laporte, a midfielder who once played for Manchester City, scored a super goal from home, forcing goalkeeper Callender to go into the net to pick up the ball for the third time.
Cristiano Ronaldo was not registered to play, so he sat in the VIP stands, while Messi sat in the reserve players’ seats. The camera continuously points towards Ronaldo every time Al Nasser scores. The 38-year-old striker stood up to celebrate with excitement. Meanwhile, Messi just sat thoughtfully and watched his teammates be overwhelmed.
Right at the beginning of the second half, Talisca completed the double, then it was Maran’s turn to head in, increasing the score to 5-0 for reigning runner-up Saudi Arabia. At minute 73, VAR stepped in to reverse the referee’s decision, thereby helping Talisca complete a hat trick and also scoring the sixth goal for Al Nassr.
Messi entered the field when the match was arranged. The Argentine superstar could not help Inter Miami score even an honorable goal.
After this match, Al Nassr will have another friendly match with Al Hilal on February 9. The season officially returns for coach Luis Castro and his team with a match against Al Feiha in the AFC Champions League knock-out round on February 15. Meanwhile, Inter Miami will continue to tour. The American professional tournament will kick off on February 22.
