Riyad Mahrez and Edouard Mendy were recognized for their outstanding performances during Al-Ahli Saudi’s convincing 3-0 away win over Neom SC on Saturday, as part of matchday 18 in the Saudi Pro League.

Indeed, the Saudi League selected Riyad Mahrez’s strike as the most beautiful goal of matchday 18, after it received the highest number of votes from fans online.

The Algerian found the net with a stunning left-footed curler from the edge of the box in the 64th minute, leaving Luís Maximiano with no chance.

The Fennec has now been involved in 13 goals in 22 appearances this season, scoring 5 and providing 8 assists for the Jeddah-based club.

His teammate, Edouard Mendy, clinched the award for best save of matchday 18 after denying Alexandre Lacazette a clear scoring chance. The Senegalese shot-stopper recorded his sixth clean sheet in 10 Saudi Pro League matches this season.
