Al Ittihad fans have confirmed that they are a difficult number in the dean system, crawling behind the team in record numbers, not deterred by long distances and travel difficulties, and have set the dean as their main target. The spectacle of the fans at the Al Ahsa Stadium yesterday was impressive and it was the biggest boost for the players on the pitch, giving an identical picture of what the stage will look like in the Al Jawhar stands.
Fans have been following the Tigers in Al-Ahsa to find out how their team has started the new season, what the new deals are and their impact.
The management of the stadium is credited with dealing well with the density of Al Ittihad fans and decided to open the stands reserved for Al Fateh fans so that it could accommodate some of that large number.
