Al Ittihad suffered a heavy 1–5 home defeat to Al Qadsiah in the Saudi Pro League on 21 May 2026, in a match played at Alinma Stadium in Jeddah.
The visitors dominated the scoreline, with Musab Al-Juwayr, Julián Quiñones — who netted including a penalty — and Mohammed Abu Al-Shamat among the scorers. Al Ittihad's only reply came from Youssef En-Nesyri, who converted from the penalty spot.
The result was a disappointing evening for the home crowd, who watched their side concede five goals on their own turf. Despite En-Nesyri's spot-kick offering a brief moment of hope, Al Qadsiah's attacking display proved too much to contain across the ninety minutes.
For football fans across Jeddah and Riyadh, the match underlines the competitiveness of the Saudi Pro League, where results can swing sharply and every fixture carries weight in the standings. Al Ittihad will now look to regroup, while Al Qadsiah leave Jeddah with a statement away victory.
The Saudi Pro League continues to draw large local audiences and growing regional attention, with matches like this one keeping supporters engaged throughout the season.
