Christophe Galtier: individuals' talents handle victory to Saudi Al-Nasr

Former PSG boss Christophe Galtier and manager of Qatari of Qatar Al-Duhail indicated that individual talents handled victory to Al-Nassr of Saudi Arabia in the third stage of the group stage in the AFC Champions League. Cristiano Ronaldo scored two second-half goals as Saudi Arabia’s Al-Nassr beat Al-Duhail of Qatar 4-3 in the Asian Champions League on Tuesday. Al-Nassr has nine points from three games in Group E, three clear of Persepolis after the Iranian team defeated Tajikistan’s Istiklol 2-0. Ronaldo’s backheel set up Anderson Talisca for the opening goal and Sadio Mane doubled the lead before halftime. The Portugal star’s left-footed curler from outside the area made it 3-0 before the hour mark. Al-Duhail pulled two goals back thanks to Ismaeel Mohammed and Almoez Ali. Christophe Galtier said: It was a strong match in which I scored seven goals, adding: “I am very satisfied with my team’s performance. We had seven scoring chances, but unfortunately, we faced a big team like Al-Nasr, which has great solutions and scored beautiful goals.” Christophe Galtier noted: Individual capabilities made the difference in this match, and our team played a great match. Galtier went on to say: “We did not do much in the first half, and a goal was canceled due to offside. Unfortunately, it was due to a few millimeters, and when we were three goals behind, the team had a good reaction, and it was harsh considering the performance we presented. Christophe Galtier concluded by talking about the past period and linked his name to Saudi clubs, and said: “I had contacts with a Saudi club to lead it in the past period, and these are normal contacts when I was available, but I am happy now with my leadership of Al-Duhail “.
