Video: Mitrovic scores twice in Jorge Jesus' return to Al Hilal

Mitrovic. Alexander Mitrovic.

The Serbian international was the symbol of Al Hilal's comeback against Damac (3-2) and not only prevented Jesus from dropping points, but also ensured they continued their 100 percent winning record in the Saudi League.

Without Cancelo, the Saudi champions dominated the first half. However, the Riyadh team did not speed up the game much, which was explained by the heat the team felt. However, Al Hilal's goal came at the end of the first half through Mitrovic, who headed a rebound inside the area.

Al Hilal have not been defeated in the Saudi league since May 2023, and are close to losing that unbeaten record. Moreover, no one expected Damac to turn the game around early in the second half with two goals in four minutes. Unpredictability is what makes football beautiful, isn’t it?

Kamano was on target to make it 1-1. Moreover, the goal was a happy one, as the Guinean fell before the shot and ended up making a perfect hat-trick for Bono.

Jesus' team watched the game indifferently, and Diallo, Damac's top scorer this season, scored to make it 2-1, stunning the Portuguese coach.

Without Cancelo, Jesus brought in Al-Shahrani and Al-Juwayr and the exchanges ended happily. A corner kick by Damac's Romanian goalkeeper Ruben Neves did not hold and Al-Juwayr equalized.

Enthusiastic at 2-2, Al Hilal “set off” in search of victory. And the hero appeared when the hero needed him most: Mitrovic, at the right time, appeared freely in the penalty area and finished a cross from the left with a touch of class.

It was necessary to wait for VAR to decide on the legality of the move, but it ended up standing. Mitrovic scored his seventh goal in three games this season, a new record. Jesus thank you.
