Al-Hilal of Saudi Arabia tied with its guest Al-Ittihad, on Saturday, in the meeting that brought the two teams together within the tenth week of the Saudi Professional League, with a score of 1-1 in the meeting that brought the two teams together at King Fahd International Stadium in the Saudi capital, Riyadh.

The two teams shared the level and score in the Saudi Football Clasico.

Al-Ittihad succeeded in snatching an early goal in the 20th minute, Abdel Rahman Al-Aboud, from a wonderful individual effort, to hit the ball strong to the left of Al-Hilal goalkeeper Habib Al-Wattayan.

Al-Ittihad exaggerated the score after the Serbian professional Aleksander Brezhovic missed an investigator when he overtook the goalkeeper and did not deal with the ball that passed quickly off the field.

The performance of the two teams declined with the start of the second half, amid arguments by the two teams on the field.

Substitute Saleh Al-Shehri took advantage of a cross, in the 85th minute, to put his head in the net of the Al-Ittihad team, scoring the equalizer for Al-Hilal.

The efforts of the two teams failed in the last minutes of the match to score the winning goal, and the meeting ended with a positive draw between the two teams.

Al Hilal’s score rose to 23 points at the top of the Saudi Professional League, and Al-Ittihad added a point to its score, bringing it to point 15 in fourth place.
