In a decisive analysis that ended a widespread controversy, it was confirmed that the decision to cancel Al-Nassr’s penalty in the match against Al-Ittifaq was “100% correct”, noting that the shot from Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo “did not touch the hand of Jack Hendry”, the opposing team’s player.
This decisive statement puts an end to the heated debate surrounding the dramatic moment in the match that brought together Al-Nassr and Al-Ittifaq at Mrsool Park, as part of the 29th round of the Saudi Roshn Professional League.
