Al Nassr, as the hosts are now in second place in the league standings with 53 points after 22 matches, while visitors Al Res are now one level from the relegation zone with 20 points with the same number of matches.
Al Nassr entered this match on the back of a 1-0 defeat to Al-Ain in the first leg of the AFC Champions League quarter-final, leaving them with more work to do in the second leg.
Despite having greater possession and more goal attempts, the Global Ones were unable to counter Soufiane Rahimi’s 44th-minute goal for Al-Ain.
Back in the league, Luis Castro’s side fell further behind in the title race when they settled for a 4-4 draw with bottom-placed Al-Hazem last Thursday, leaving them nine points adrift of league leaders Al-Hilal.
With 12 matches remaining in the Saudi Pro League, Al-Nassr are running out of time if they plan to become champions at the end of the season.
