Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Sadio Mane jumping on Roberto Firmino’s back after Talisca scored.
This marked the 38-year-old’s eighth goal of the league season in only six appearances at this point, but he was not done for the evening either. Anderson Talisca put his side two goals in front, before former AC Milan and Barcelona midfielder, Franck Kessié, pulled one back for the visitors. With the game looking to be heading into half-time at 2-1, Talisca struck once more, putting Al-Nassr further in the driving seat. Two second-half goals – including a Riyad Mahrez penalty – were not enough for Al-Ahli as Ronaldo found the back of the net once more to seal a 4-3 win for the hosts.
Sadio Mane winds up Roberto Firmino after Al Nassr goal
One of the biggest talking points, alongside the opening goal, came after Talisca had scored to make it 3-1 at the end of the first half. While the Brazilian forward was in the corner celebrating, he was joined by his teammates, with Mane taking a slight de-tour on the way.
Sadio Mane celebrated an Al Nassr goal by jumping on Roberto Firmino’s back during their 4-3 win over the Brazilian’s new club Al Ahli in the Saudi Pro League on Friday. The pair built up quite the partnership during their time together at Liverpool but that didn’t stop the Senegalese star from poking fun at his old team-mate.
Two goals each from Cristiano Ronaldo and former Benfica striker Talisca were enough to see off Firmino’s Al Ahli despite Franck Kessie, Riyad Mahrez and Firas Al-Buraikan getting on the scoresheet for the visitors. Midway through the match after Talisca extended Al Nassr’s lead to 3-1, Mane ruthlessly taunted his former team-mate turned foe by leaping on his back.
