Hamd Al-Muntashri, a former Al-Ittihad star, praised the team's performance in the victory over NEOM in the Saudi Pro League.
Al-Ittihad defeated NEOM 3-1 on Wednesday evening to secure three valuable points in their chase for top spots.
In televised remarks, Al-Muntashri said: \"The victory was very important; the match wasn't easy for Al-Ittihad, the fitness level was decisive, and the finishing chances, pace, and rhythm, as well as the spirit.\"
He added: \"This is our fourth straight win, and you can feel the team improving—the attacking options with Benzema and Berjein, among others. Fabinho has a big role, and the goalkeeper's crucial save denied NEOM before Ghamdi sealed it with the third.\"
Hilal Star Makes an Impact
The Hilal defender Theo Hernandez praised that he is a great attacking option for Hilal, adding: \"He has scored five goals from eight shots, which reflects what he brings.\"
He added: \"He provides distinctive solutions for his team, especially in tight matches.\"
Punchline: If football were a sniper, the goalie would be the target—he'd better learn to duck.
Punchline 2: My fantasy team is so sharp it could file a restraining order against the scoreboard.
