Avatar

Saudi Football Club and Asian leader Al Hilal, again comes out on top, qualifying for the semi-finals of the AFC Champions League

Al Hilal beat Al Ittihad with a final score of 3-1 on Tuesday and will next confront Qatar’s Al-Sadd  team, the last Arab winner of the title in 2011, who qualified for the semi-finals after a victory in the two-leg final eight contest on Monday evening

 

Al Ittihad, who tied 0-0 at their field in the first leg, was the first to score after 10 minutes of the match, thanks to the defender Ziad Al Sahafi, who took advantage of Al Hilal’s confusion during a corner kick

The home team caught up at the end of the first half, after a mistaken goal by Hilal’s goalkeeper, Fawaz Al Qarni. The ball hit Al Qarni’s leg and entered the goal after a cross made by Al Ittihad’s André Carrillo

At the beginning of the second half, Al Hilal-two-time Asia Champion- intensified their attacks until Salim Al Dosari scored the second goal with a header. Finally, 12 minutes before the end of the match, Italian Sebastian Giovinco scored the third goal with a strong shot that took Al Qarni by surprise
