Hamstring Hurdle for a Star as Al Hilal Dominate 4-0 Over Al Najmah
6 March 2026
Match context
During the 25th round of the Roshen Pro League, Al Hilal faced a morale blow when one of their key players sustained an injury. Murad Othman Haroun Al-Hosawi suffered a hamstring issue during the clash with Al Najmah at Kingdom Arena, forcing his early exit. The Zaeem’s bench, under head coach Simone Inzaghi, brought on Simon Boubary to cover the sudden absence.
Injury update and match progress
Doctors will conduct detailed medical tests in the coming hours or days to assess the exact severity and expected absence from the squad.
On the pitch, Al Hilal continued their advance and led 4-0, powered by Karim Benzema’s ongoing form, with contributions from Malcolm and Savic.
Punchline 1: Murad’s hamstring pulled a Houdini—disappeared just as the whistle blew. Punchline 2: Benzema is scoring so fast the scoreboard needs a loyalty program.
