The match was the Brazilian number 10’s third to last for the Saudi club before tearing the cruciate ligament and meniscus in his left knee, the most serious injury of his entire career.
One show after another
Following victories three months ago, Al-Hilal has already taken the lead in Saudi. With 47 points won so far, they are ten ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr, who are in second place.
Jesus’ team also has, by far, the best attack (50 goals, average of 3.47 per game) and also the least leaky defense (nine goals, average of 0.53 per game) in the competition.
In the Asian Champions League, they went through the group stage with the best campaign of the 40 participating clubs: they scored 16 of the 18 possible points (there was a draw before Neymar’s injury) and had a positive balance of 16 goals.
Who’s shining?
Without Neymar, who is occupying the role of Al-Hilal’s protagonist is the Serbian center forward Aleksandar Mitrovic. The former Fulham player, also signed this season, has already scored 23 goals this season.
