Al-Ahli regained victory after two league punctures in a match where Gabri Veiga scored again. The Celta youth player opened the scoring in the 55th minute with a pass from Riyadh Mahrez and scored his third goal of the championship in ten days.
Already in added time, Al-Asmari scored the second goal assisted by Ivan Toney and sealed a victory (2-0) against Al-Raed that places Matthias Jaissle’s men fifth in the table with 14 points, before facing a national team break where the Galician will return to the Santi Denia U-21 camp.
With this new goal, Veiga has already scored 8 goals in his 36 games defending the colors of Al-Ahli in just over 13 months since his high-profile arrival at the Saudi team at just 21 years old.
