Al Hilal defeated Neom 2-0 on Saturday to reduce Al Nassr's lead to two points ahead of the final Saudi Pro League matchday. Ruben Neves and Sultan Mandash scored the goals that keep the title race alive. Cristiano Ronaldo's side must now win their last game to secure the championship.
Al Hilal took the lead in the ninth minute when Portugal midfielder Ruben Neves converted a penalty. Saudi Arabia winger Sultan Mandash added a second goal from inside the box 13 minutes into the second half at Riyadh’s Kingdom Arena. The result came after Al Hilal drew 1-1 with Al Nassr earlier in the week thanks to a 98th-minute goal.
