The match, played in Buraidah, featured a standout performance by Fay\u00e7al Fajr, who provided the assist for his team\u2019s only goal. However, Karim Benzema\u2019s experience tipped the balance in favor of the visitors, who won 2-1 and reinforced their position as league leaders after 19 rounds of the Saudi Pro League.<\/p>\n\n<p>After falling behind in the 21st minute through Abdulrahman Al-Aboud\u2019s goal, Al-Taawoun managed to equalize just before halftime with a perfectly executed corner kick by Fajr. The Moroccan found the far post, where Gambian forward Musa Barrow powered the ball into the net with a powerful strike.<\/p>\n\n<p>A turning point occurred when the referee initially awarded Al-Ittihad a penalty for a handball by Fajr inside the box after a shot by Benzema. However, after reviewing the incident via VAR, the decision was overturned. Despite this, Benzema scored the decisive goal in the 95th minute, securing the victory for his team.&#13;\n&#13;\nThe match also saw the participation of Moroccan midfielder Achraf El Mahdioui for Al-Taawoun, while Abdelhamid Sabiri came on as a substitute in the 72nd minute.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\r\n<iframe title=\"\u0647\u062f\u0641 \u0645\u0648\u0633\u0649 \u0628\u0627\u0631\u0648 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0627\u062a\u062d\u0627\u062f ( \u0627\u0644\u0627\u062a\u062d\u0627\u062f \u0648 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0639\u0627\u0648\u0646 ) \u062f\u0648\u0631\u064a \u0631\u0648\u0634\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0639\u0648\u062f\u064a \u0644\u0644\u0645\u062d\u062a\u0631\u0641\u064a\u0646 24\/25\" width=\"755\" height=\"425\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TRsPFSXbP18?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n<\/div><\/figure>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Al-Taawoun lost a valuable point against Al-Ittihad, conceding a heartbreaking goal in the dying seconds of stoppage time.
