Portuguese Jorge Jesus, the head coach of Al-Nassr, revealed the reasons that led him to rest some of the team's stars, including Cristiano Ronaldo, during the match against Jeddah, which ended with Al-Nassr winning 4-0 in the King's Cup.

Jesus explained that the absence of Ronaldo and his teammates was due to having played a strong match just three days prior, emphasizing that the decision was made to maintain their physical fitness and avoid fatigue ahead of upcoming challenges.

The coach added that giving opportunities to other players does not diminish the strength of the team, but rather provides greater flexibility, noting that such decisions help prepare players for the long competitions that await the club.

Jesus praised the performance of the Jeddah team, highlighting that they showed good levels during parts of the match, but he stressed that any team facing Al-Nassr finds it difficult to stop the attacking power of the team.

The Portuguese coach also confirmed that Al-Nassr was the better side throughout the match, imposing their rhythm and control from start to finish, ensuring their progression to the next round with high confidence.

Jesus concluded his statements by emphasizing that Al-Nassr's focus has now shifted to the upcoming match against Al-Ittihad in the league, explaining that the team aims to continue its impressive results and achieve consecutive victories.
