Al-Nassr turn down Al-Shabab for Abdulelah Al-Amri
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Tempers go at Al-Nassr
Kingsley Coman was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Sadio Mané runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 16. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
