The Saudi Al Hilal team is preparing to compete in the second round of the group stage of the AFC Champions League, next Tuesday, against the Iranian Mazandaran Weavers team at the “Azadi” Stadium in the Iranian capital, Tehran.
The Brazilian star of the Brazilian Al Hilal team, Neymar da Silva, sparked controversy, after he commented on a tweet published today, Sunday, by the official account of the Saudi League on “X” (formerly Twitter), with a video of stadium workers preparing the grass for the upcoming match.
Neymar wrote, “This is unreasonable,” and added sarcastic expressive drawings about the poor condition of the stadium’s grass that will host the team’s next match, as workers were placing pieces of grass in the empty spaces, using primitive methods by hand, and without resorting to special machines.

There were doubts about the Brazilian player’s participation in the match, after the injury he suffered in Al Hilal’s last confrontation against Al-Shabab, the day before yesterday, Friday, but the former French star of Paris Saint-Germain was at the top of his club’s list that traveled to Iran on Sunday, to play the upcoming summit match. .
