Al Hilal manager Simone Inzaghi has jumped to the defence of his superstar attackers after the Saudi giants saw their historic 47-game unbeaten league run come to a crashing halt. Despite fielding a frontline worth over $200m, the league leaders slumped to a shock 2-0 defeat against Neom at the Kingdom Arena.

Cristiano Ronaldo transitioning into the Hollywood movie industry cannot be ruled out, Shaka Hislop has told GOAL, even if the Portuguese GOAT finds himself operating as “Vinnie Jones’ sidekick”. At 41 years of age, the Al-Nassr superstar is heading towards retirement and speculation is rife regarding what he will do next - with it possible that the big screen awaits.

Joao Felix was left furious following Al-Nassr's dramatic 2-1 defeat against rivals Al-Ittihad on Saturday evening, threatening to lift the lid on the Saudi Pro League. The Portuguese forward made the fiery outburst while walking towards the team bus, as Ange Postecoglou's side suffered their first league loss of the season.

Cristiano Ronaldo was caught on camera cheekily spying on tactical instructions held by opponent Danilo during a Saudi Pro League clash. The hilarious moment brought smiles to both players on the pitch, but Ronaldo was left frustrated as Al-Ittihad held on to hand Al-Nassr their first defeat of the season in a fiercely contested 2-1 thriller.
