Historic Masterstroke: Jesus Sparks an Unprecedented Start for Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League
27 December 2025
A Historic Start under Jesus
Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus delivered an unprecedented milestone for Al Nassr by steering them to a 3-0 victory over Al Khoud in the Saudi Pro League, during the Round 11 clash on Saturday night.
The win raised Al Nassr to 30 points at the summit, widening their lead over rivals Al Hilal to four points after 11 matches.
Remarkably, this marks the best start in the history of the Saudi Pro League since the inception of professionalism in 2008-09, boasting ten wins from the opening ten fixtures.
Numbers Behind the Triumph
With this historic feat, Al Nassr matched and then surpassed the previous record set by Al Hilal, who had nine straight victories in the 2018-2019 season.
Paradoxically, that record was achieved under Jesus before he rewrote the story seven years later with his new club.
Punchline 1: If goals were coins, this team would be minting a fortune.
Punchline 2: The league table is starting to need a bigger podium—Al Nassr's ascent is MT (mountain-top) level.
