In the fourth round of the Saudi Pro League, Al-Ittihad hosted Al-Nassr, and before kick-off there was a touching moment between two football icons.
Details: Al-Ittihad striker Karim Benzema and Al-Nassr forward Cristiano Ronaldo exchanged a few words before the opening whistle, recreating the spirit of that memorable encounter between Marco Reus of Borussia Dortmund and Robert Lewandowski after his move to Bayern Munich.
Reminder: Al-Nassr superstar Cristiano Ronaldo was once again given a rest by the head coach and did not feature in the Saudi Cup match. However, the Portuguese icon showed his support for his teammates on his Instagram page.
