Neom ends 47-game unbeaten streak for Al-Hilal in Saudi Pro League

Summary

Neom defeated Al-Hilal 2-0 in Riyadh on Monday, snapping the host's 47-game unbeaten run in the Saudi Pro League. The loss also concluded Al-Hilal's five-game winning streak to start the current season. Neom secured the victory after a 15th-minute own goal by Kalidou Koulibaly and a goal from Amadou Kone just before halftime. Despite fielding three high-profile attackers signed this summer from Premier League clubs, Al-Hilal failed to score for the first time this season. Simone Inzaghi, who joined the club in June 2025, recorded his first league defeat as manager. Al-Nassr, led by Cristiano Ronaldo, remains in position to move level on points with the league leaders if they defeat Abha on Thursday.
