Al Hilal secured the Saudi Super Cup by overcoming a one-goal deficit to defeat Al Nassr 4-1 on Saturday, with all their goals scored in a commanding second half.
Cristiano Ronaldo netted Al Nassr’s sole goal just before the first half concluded, capitalizing on a superb pass from Abd El Rahaman Ghareeb, though the initial half saw limited opportunities.
Al Hilal seized control post-interval, with Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Aleksandar Mitrovic, and Malcom each contributing to the tally. Milinkovic-Savic leveled the score in the 55th minute after a series of passes with Mitrovic, delivering a strong shot into Al Nassr's net.
Al Hilal surged ahead eight minutes later when Mitrovic connected with a precise cross from Ruben Neves, heading the ball into the net from close range. The Serbian forward then doubled Al Hilal’s advantage, receiving a pass from Malcom in the 69th minute and shooting directly into the net.
Malcom sealed Al Hilal’s victory by scoring their fourth goal three minutes later, capitalizing on a mistake by Al Nassr goalkeeper Pinto, who mishandled the ball following a pass from Aymeric Laporte.
Al Hilal clinched the title consecutively for the second time and for the fifth time overall, maintaining their position as the most triumphant team in the championship, leading Al Nassr by three titles.
