Al hilal showed character and a good zeal to succeed as they defended with everything with in them and also played with everything good game for the Saudi Arabia team as they dumped out Manchester City out of the club world cup
With the performance of Al Hilal did not earn them SPL title, how come were they able to defeat Manchester City, we need to respect the league but considering that all teams in SPL won't be as classic as Al Hilal makes the league not still to be compared to others. SPL league has been dominated by one team from their past season records, Al Hilal just the way we have PSG in the French league winning most of the time in the their league. I wait to see how far Al Hilal will go in the tournament, i hope they succeed further.
I think because of the presence of Simone Inzaghi as the new manager, Al Hilal was surprisingly able to beat Manchester City and advance to the quarter finals.
Al Hilal chances of advancing to the semifinals are very open, expectations for the Saudi Pro League representatives are higher after defeating Pep Guardiola squad, although Fluminensi cannot be underestimated.
Overall, I predict that Al Hilal journey may only reach the semifinals, because on that path there is Chelsea, which can be a big obstacle to reaching the final.
