Al Hilal, with Rúben Neves and Marcos Leonardo starting, drew (1-1) with Al Taawoun, which featured Biel, loaned from Sporting, in the 10th round (postponed) of the Saudi league, failing to surpass Al Nassr and Al Ahli in the standings. Al Hilal took the lead in the 41st minute through a penalty. Theo Hernández fell in the area after contact from Mahzari. After being called to the monitor, the referee awarded a penalty, which Rúben Neves successfully converted. Al Taawoun equalized in the same manner. Following a free kick from Roger Martínez, the ball struck the arm of Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, and the referee pointed to the penalty spot. Roger Martínez took responsibility and equalized, even though Al Taawoun had not done much to deserve it. In the second half, Al Taawoun hit the crossbar in the 55th minute through Muteb Al Mufarrij. Nevertheless, it was Al Hilal that sought the goal more aggressively, but without success. After the 80th minute, Marcos Leonardo broke free but shot wide. In the 90+1 minute, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic headed over, but very close to the target. Al Hilal has 55 points, the same as Al Nassr, which has one game less (22). The leader is Al Ahli, with 56 points and one more game than Jorge Jesus's team, Cristiano Ronaldo, and João Félix. Al Ittihad, managed by Sérgio Conceição, who started Roger Fernandes, also drew (1-1) against Al Hazem, featuring Fábio Martins. The goals only came in the second half and in the final stretch. Roger Fernandes put Al Ittihad ahead with a powerful left-footed shot from outside the area in the 80th minute. The lead did not last long, as Al Dhuwayhi equalized in the 84th minute. Al Ittihad has 39 points and occupies sixth place, while Al Hazem has 25 points and is in 13th place.
