Do you guys think this league will outlive this surge of players? They are all old and most of them will retire within 5 years.
Would you watch this league once Ronaldo and Neymar weren't playing there? I'm watching the MLS only because of Messi, if he misses a game I'm instantly disinterested.
I am sure that of the many who discuss the Saudi Pro League maybe only 10-20% watch the matches or even less, especially if the match schedule is midnight for other regions or when their match schedule coincides with the schedule of other more interesting leagues, except for Middle Easterners whose television broadcasts also broadcast matches from the arab League without having to subscribe to television to watch them, watching the highlights of the match will be enough.
Al Ettifaq could only draw with Al Khaleej, although they controlled the game, this was not a good result actually because the other three teams managed to get 3 points. Al Khaleej only had one shot on target and it was a goal while Al Ettifaq had more chances they managed to create but more failed in the finishing touches so they had to accept this draw.
Karim Benzema finally scored his first goal in the Saudi Pro League match against Al Riyadh, there were rumors that his relationship was not going well with the coach of Ittihad FC so he was rumored to be moving to another club in the Arab League, but Ittihad FC immediately denied the rumors, and this first goal may be enough to stop the rumors for a while.
