Al Hilal’s unbeaten streak in the Roshn Saudi League continued as they secured a dramatic 1-1 draw against Al Nassr in the Riyadh Derby. The match at Al Awwal Park saw Al Nassr taking an early lead within the first minute with a goal from Otavio. However, Al Hilal fought back and Aleksandar Mitrovic scored a last-minute penalty to salvage a draw, maintaining their unbeaten record in the 2023/24 season.

The game was marked by opportunities for both teams, with Al Nassr dominating the first half and Al Hilal coming back stronger in the second. Despite the draw ending their winning streak of 24 league games since September, manager Jorge Jesus expressed pride in his team’s performance and resilience. He is optimistic about the remaining season, aiming to remain unbeaten in the next two league games and win the King’s Cup final. Jesus believes this season has been exceptional for his team in local competitions.

The controversy of the match involved a late penalty awarded to Al Hilal after a VAR review ruled that Sadio Mane had fouled Saud Abdulhamid inside the box. While Jesus supported the decision, Al Nassr’s manager Luis Castro disputed it, claiming it was not a genuine penalty. The rivalry tension is expected to continue as both teams will meet again in the upcoming King’s Cup final, adding to the intensity of their encounters.

With a twelve-point lead over second-placed Al Nassr and a world record of 34 consecutive wins across all competitions earlier in the season, Al Hilal faces high stakes as the season nears its climax. The outcome of the Riyadh Derby has raised the anticipation for the King’s Cup final, with both teams eager to secure victory. The intense competition between Al Hilal and Al Nassr is set to continue, promising thrilling matches and fierce encounters in the remaining games of the season.

Both teams are focused on their upcoming matches as they strive for success in the league and the cup final. Al Hilal remains determined to maintain their unbeaten record and secure the King’s Cup, while Al Nassr is eager to bounce back from the draw and claim victory in the final. The rivalry between the two clubs adds an extra layer of excitement to the season, creating anticipation for fans and spectators alike.

As the Roshn Saudi League season progresses towards its conclusion, the battle for the top spot intensifies between Al Hilal and Al Nassr. The rivalry between the two clubs adds drama and suspense to each match, making every encounter a must-watch for football fans. With the stakes high and the competition fierce, the remaining games of the season are sure to be filled with excitement, tension, and unforgettable moments for both teams and their supporters.
