They did not give up and challenged one of Riyadh's best neighborhood teams for a place in that tournament.
Al-Ittifaq won the match 3–1 with Abdullah scoring twice.
Al-Ittifaq participated in the tournament and they went on to win the championship.
Mohammed Al-Hudayan, a teammate at Al-Ittifaq, recommended Abdullah to Al-Nassr president Prince Abdulrahman Bin Saud, as did Al-Ittifaq's coach Nasseb Awad to Khaled Al-Turki and Al-Nassr coach Ljubiša Broćić.
Broćić went to see Abdullah unannounced at Al-Ittifaq's training field in Al-Batha and requested that the club sign him.
