RIYADH: Saudi Arabian clubs are going to have to get accustomed to the new reality of football.
Al-Hilal have lost two finals already this year in the FIFA Club World Cup and the Asian Champions League and came within moments of losing a third on Friday in Jeddah. A goal down to Al-Wehda with 98 minutes on the clock in the King’s Cup final, Ali Al-Bulaihi sent the game into extra-time and then the Riyadh giants triumphed 7-6 in a penalty shootout with goalkeeper Abdullah Al-Mayouf making the vital saves before stepping up to convert the final kick.
On Saturday, Al-Hilal lost the Asian Champions League final for the third time in a decade. The record books will show that Urawa Reds won the second leg 1-0 to take the tie 2-1 on aggregate but what won’t be as clear was that — just as in 2014 against Western Sydney Wanderers and three years later against the same Japanese opposition — the Riyadh giants could have been the ones lifting the trophy.
Having let slip the lead in the match, Al Hilal relinquished control of the tie.
The Riyadh Derby is always a huge affair and Tuesday’s is bigger than most. The situation for Al-Nassr is simple — win no matter the cost. For Al-Hilal however, it is a little more complicated and there is the question as to whether temporary local bragging rights are more important than crucial cup games later this month.
