"Steven Bergwijn scored and assisted for Al-Ittihad as they defeated Neom 3-1 in the Saudi Pro League. A superb free-kick from Said Benrahma cancelled out Roger Fernandes' opener, but Bergwijn managed to find the net in the 68th minute before Ahmed Al Ghamdi made sure of three points for his side at King Khalid Sport City Stadium in second-half stoppage time."
"After a tentative start from both sides, Al-Ittihad took the lead after 14 minutes. Bergwijn picked up the ball on the right wing before floating a cross to the far post, where Fernandes was on hand to convert home with a diving header. Karim Benzema and Muhannad Al Shanqiti both missed chances to double their lead, and they were made to pay when Benrahma's free-kick shortly before the half-hour mark could only be tipped onto the inside of the post and in by Predrag Rajkovic."
