Al-Nassr Shocks Al-Ahli Before Their Anticipated Clash in the Saudi League
Al-Nassr has resolved its stance on the idea of forming a guard of honor for its rival Al-Ahli before their anticipated league match, and sources confirmed that this proposal was never even brought up for discussion within the club.
This comes despite Al-Ahly recently winning the Asian Champions League for the elite, and Al-Nassr's management believes that full focus should be on the importance of the upcoming match.
The match is considered a crucial point in the team's battle for the Roshan League title this season, and preparations within the club are proceeding normally without any exceptional arrangements.
The guard of honor is known as one of the symbolic traditions in global football, where some teams resort to it to salute the champion in recognition of their great achievement.
This scene has spread in leagues like England and Spain over the past years, with its first appearance dating back to the 1950s in English stadiums.
Al-Ahly secured the continental title after defeating the Japanese team Machida in the final.
