Merih Demiral Claims Al-Nassr Engages in Unfair Play to Secure Wins

Tensions are escalating in the Saudi Pro League following a contentious match between Al-Ahli and Al-Nassr. After Al-Ahli’s 0-2 defeat in Matchday 30, centre-back Merih Demiral criticized both Al-Nassr and the refereeing crew, alleging that officials are biased in favor of Cristiano Ronaldo‘s team.

Demiral expressed his frustration over the officiating, claiming that it has consistently favored Al-Nassr in their pursuit of titles. In an emotional outburst, he stated:

“I swear to God, the refereeing is just unbelievable… Look, look at the injury on my leg! They are constantly trying to help Al-Nassr win titles. I swear by Almighty God, it’s a disgrace — they’re always pushing Al-Nassr towards trophies. But thank God… Al-Ahli always wins without anyone’s help. My friend, all the referees are crazy!” Demiral said.

Currently, Al-Ahli holds third place in the Saudi Pro League, accumulating 66 points from 30 matches. In contrast, Al-Nassr leads the standings with 79 points.
