Tony's Hat-Trick Takes Al Ahli to Dominant Roshn Saudi League Win
Tony's hat-trick seals Al Ahli's win against Al Najmah in the Roshn Saudi League

Match Recap

Ivan Tony, the English striker for Al Ahli Jeddah, continued his explosive form with a stunning hat-trick that propelled the 'Raqi' to a 4-1 victory over Al Najmah on Thursday night in Round 23 of the Roshn Saudi Pro League.

With this treble, Tony extended his lead at the top of the league's scoring chart to 23 goals, four clear of Cristiano Ronaldo of Al Nassr and Julian Quinones of Al Qadsiah.

According to Opta, Tony has now scored 10 goals in 11 matches against promoted clubs in the Roshn Saudi League after this latest hat-trick against Al Najmah.

Opta noted that Al Najmah were the only promoted side not to concede to Tony before he exploded with his hat-trick.

This marks his fifth hat-trick for Al Ahli and the fourth this season, underscoring his proficiency and his bid to win the Golden Boot.

Punchline time: If Tony keeps this up, defenses might petition for hazard pay just to slow him down. And if my jokes were as precise as his finishing, the league topper would be both golden and well-rested.
