With this win, the Blue Devil's have rejuvenated their
appetite for the Saudi Professional League title. At present, the silverwares
in Hilal's showroom have increased to 53.
The final was a thriller as the rival
fans were glued to the edge of their seat with both teams putting up an
impressive display. It was a goal-fest in the first half while the second
session left the spectators breathless.
However, Hilal emerged victorious. If they keep up their
momentum and play their cards right, their 54th title to could not be very far
away from sight.
The pause in the Saudi league will give the tired players
a well-deserved break.
Unfortunately for Hilal, eleven from their squad will join
the national team. The planned camp in Dubai will not be as constructive as
they are hoping for. On the other hand, this will give the other teams a good
opportunity to look through their difficulties.
Al-Ittihad is said to be
planning a camp in Jabal Ali in UAE. I only hope that this break serves the
purpose. Too much of it can be harmful too.
Wishing all the teams good luck and a great fight.
Congratulations to Al-Hilal, who proved once more that
they know better, in winning championships!
