Rodgers praised his team's intensity and technical level in the Dammam derby, where goals from Nahitan Nandez, Christopher Bonsu Baah, and Julians Quinones and Weigl secured the win. The result extends their unbeaten run in the Roshn Saudi League to 14 matches since his appointment.
Despite Al Qadsiah sitting fourth in the table, just three points from the summit, Rodgers quashed title talk, focusing instead on his team's philosophy of starting fast and finishing strong. The victory maintains their strong league form since taking charge in December.
