It was the match of the day between the two co-leaders of the Saudi elite, and the debates, once again, turned in favor of the defending champions. At home, Al-Hilal dominated Al-Ittihad with a score of 3-1, on behalf of the 4e
championship act.
The locals were able to make the difference in the first half, with a quick double from Mitrovic (3e14e on penalty) and a goal from Al-Dawsari (37e). A wave that was enough to demobilize the visitors, even if a certain Benzema tried hard to save face.
Already five goals for KB9
Scorer at the end of the match on an assist from Diaby (86e), KB9 found the back of the net twice more but on two goals invalidated for offside… The interested party has nonetheless made an excellent start to the season with already five goals to his name, in four rounds.
In the standings, Al-Hilal becomes the sole leader with a full 12 points. That is, three lengths ahead of Al-Ittihad, Al-Shabab and Al-Ettifaq.
