Firmino, the first hero among Saudi stars

The Saudi elite experienced its curtain raiser this Friday evening. With a sparkling Firmino.

For this grand premiere of the 2023-2024 Saudi league, with its myriad of new stars, Al-Ahli was opposed to Al-Hazem.

The Jeddah club won 3-1, not without a hat-trick from former Liverpool star Bobby Firmino.

Note a decisive pass to the credit of Mahrez and the presence on the ground in the ranks of Al-Ahli of other executives recruited this summer: Mendy in goal, Kessié in recovery, Boudebouz and Saint-Maximin in the ‘offensive.
