Al-Hilal Makes Football History with 28th Consecutive Win: Neymar Watches as Saudi Pro League Side Secures Victory

Neymar watched from the sidelines as his Saudi Pro League team, Al-Hilal, achieved a historic feat by securing their 28th consecutive victory with a 2-0 triumph over Al-Ittihad in the AFC Champions League match on Tuesday.

WHAT HAPPENED? Al-Hilal, currently leading the Saudi Pro League, etched their name in football history by clinching their 28th consecutive win against Al-Ittihad in the AFC Champions League. This remarkable achievement surpasses the previous record held by Welsh club The New Saints, establishing Al-Hilal as the team with the longest winning streak in football history. Neymar has been sidelined for most of the season due to an ACL injury, watching his team’s incredible run from the sidelines.

WHAT JORGE JESUS SAID Al-Hilal’s manager, Jorge Jesus, downplayed the significance of the record before the match, stating, “It’s a world record but it’s not a title. Titles are the league, the cup, and the Asian Champions League. It’s true that the more you win, the closer you are to achieving your objectives, and we welcome that.”

THE BIGGER PICTURE Al-Hilal’s latest triumph propels them closer to potential silverware. Jesus’s squad has secured a spot in the AFC Champions League semi-finals and currently enjoys a 12-point lead at the summit of the Saudi Pro League. While Neymar’s absence has been felt, former Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has made a significant impact, netting 29 goals in 28 appearances for his new team.

WHAT NEXT FOR AL-HILAL Al-Hilal will look to extend their winning streak to 29 matches when they face Damac on Saturday, continuing their pursuit of the title under Jesus’s leadership.
