20 January 2026
Match Highlights
The English forward Evan Tony, Al Ahli's talisman, delivered another eye-catching display as he bagged a hat-trick against Al Khaleej on Tuesday night, sealing the 17th round of the Saudi Pro League.
Tony struck in the 59th, 67th and 77th minutes of the second half to overturn a one-goal deficit and spark a late, decisive comeback.
With the treble, he moves closer to 100 goals for Al Ahli, lifting his tally to 52 in 70 appearances across all competitions since joining in 2024.
The striker's 14 goals this season lift him to second in the league's top-scorer list, behind Cristiano Ronaldo's 15, with Joao Felix on 13 close behind.
This marks Tony's 15th contribution for Al Ahli in his last nine matches across competitions, including 11 goals and 4 assists, underscoring his consistency.
It's also Tony's third hat-trick for Al Ahli and the ninth of his professional career.
