Salem Al-Dosari reached his 100th goal with Al-Hilal in various competitions, while Moroccan Abdel-Razzaq Hamdallah (Al-Ittihad striker) became the second highest-scoring player in the Saudi Professional Football League in the round in which Al-Nasr returned to victories led by Cristiano Ronaldo.
Al-Dosari, the best player in Asia, scored a goal in Al-Hilal’s 2-1 victory over its guest Damac, putting coach Jorge Jesus’ team at the top of the league with 68 points, 12 points ahead of Al-Nasr, its direct rivals, led by Ronaldo.
Celsius for Al-Dosari with Al-Hilal
Al-Dosari told the Saudi Sports Company (SSC) station, “(Reaching) goal number 200? God willing, I will reach goal one thousand.” Al Hilal achieved its 29th successive victory in all competitions, continuing to enhance its record to become the football team with the most consecutive victories in history.
Al Hilal reached point 68, strengthening its lead in the league.
Al-Dosari won the Best Player in Asia award in 2022. The Saudi midfielder scored 15 goals in various competitions with Al-Hilal this season.
Al-Dosari contributed to Al-Hilal reaching the semi-finals of the AFC Champions League after defeating its local rival Al-Ittihad in the quarter-finals. The runner-up of the last edition will play Al Ain of the United Arab Emirates in the semi-finals next month.
Hamdallah is the second top scorer in the Saudi League
Moroccan striker Abdel Razzaq Hamdallah scored two goals in Al-Ittihad’s 4-2 victory over Al-Fateh, reaching his 127th goal in the Saudi League and becoming the second highest-scoring player in the history of the competition.
Hamdallah (former Al-Nasr striker) scored 17 goals, putting him 6 goals behind Ronaldo, who is the league’s top scorer this season.
Jota glows in the first start
Joao Felipe (Jota) started the match for the first time with Al-Ittihad in the league. He scored a goal and won a penalty kick to contribute to his team’s victory over Al-Fateh.
Jota gave an attention-grabbing performance, appearing different from his performance at the beginning of the season, which caused his name to be removed from the league’s professional list before he was re-registered during the winter transfer period.
Ronaldo brings victory back to victories
Ronaldo scored a goal from a penalty kick, giving Al-Nasr victory over Al-Ahly with a clean goal, achieving its first victory in 3 league matches.
After a draw with Al-Hazm and a loss against Al-Raed in the league, and leaving the AFC Champions League in the quarter-finals against Al-Ain, coach Luis Castro’s team returned to victories, raising its score to 56 points in second place behind Al-Hilal.
