Al-Nassr recorded their sixth consecutive victory in the Saudi Pro League with a 2-0 win over Al-Ittihad.
Sadio Mane was the hero once again as Al-Nassr were without Cristiano Ronaldo, with the 41-year-old missing a second successive game amid doubts over his future.
The Senegal international scored from the penalty spot in the 84th minute before Angelo added a second in stoppage time to move Al-Nassr within one point of league leaders Al-Hilal.
After Mane's deflected strike forced Predrag Rajkovic into an early save, Al-Nassr were let off the hook when a VAR check to see whether Mohamed Simakan had handled the ball in the box from a cross resulted in the referee not awarding a penalty.
Joao Felix then tested the Al-Ittihad goalkeeper with a long-range effort, which Rajkovic comfortably saved, before Mane fired over the bar from Kingsley Coman's cutback as the home side dominated at Al-Awwal Park.
Then, just as it seemed like Al-Ittihad were destined to leave with a point, Mohammed Barnawi was penalised for a handball when trying to block Aiman Yahya's shot in the box, and Mane sent the goalkeeper the wrong way from 12 yards 84 minutes in.
Jorge Jesus' side then saw the win out with ease as the visitors did not register a single shot after Mane's penalty, while Angelo ran from his own half on the counter in the 96th minute before shooting through the legs of Rajkovic.

Data Debrief: Sadio the new Mane man
Although they left it late, it was a dominant display from Al-Nassr. They produced 1.91 expected goals (xG) from 16 shots to Al-Ittihad's 0.11 from five attempts, of which only one was on target.
Mane scored the only goal in a 1-0 win over Al-Riyadh last time out, which was the first game Ronaldo missed due to his protests against Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, and the Senegalese forward was on hand to help get them over the line again.
He recorded the most xG in the match (1.23), as well as the most shots (five) and touches in the box (12), all while competing in the joint-most duels for his side (15) and winning the joint-most aerial battles (four).
