In the final match, Al Hilal still has a chance to continue. The mission of the Saudi Pro League representative is to defeat Pachuca.
Malcom and his teammates did an excellent job of winning 3 points, thereby taking 2nd place in Group H, just behind Real Madrid, and becoming the only Asian club to participate in the knockout round of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™. Previously, Al Ain, Ulsan, and Urawa Reds all failed to make it past the group stage.
Al Hilal's opponent in the round of 16 will be Manchester City, the powerful team currently led by Pep Guardiola.
Al Hilal makes Asian football famous. |
The match at Geodis Park was exciting right from the opening whistle. Both teams showed their ambition to win 3 points and created an attractive attacking game. After many missed opportunities, Al Hilal took the lead in the 26th minute. After a pass from Nasser Al Dawsari, Salem Al Dawsari broke through and skillfully lifted the ball over the goalkeeper's head.
In the second half, the game tilted towards Pachuca. The Mexican representative attacked continuously in the hope of finding an equalizer. 10 chances were created but all passed before the toes of Salomon Rondon and his teammates.
On the other hand, Al Hilal defended for most of the time and only needed a moment of carelessness from their opponents to deliver the finishing blow. In the 90+5 minute, starting from a Pachuca player's faulty kick, Ruben Neves passed long for Marcos Leonardo to run down and score the winning goal 2-0.
