Al Hilal Club President, Fahd bin Nafel, pledged to give a huge reward to his team’s players after their victory over rivals Al Nassr yesterday, Friday, in the Riyadh Derby, within the 15th stage of the Saudi Football League.
Al Hilal won the derby match with a score of three unanswered, signed by Serbian Sergei Milinkovic-Savic and his compatriot Aleksandar Mitrovic, who scored two goals.
Al-Hilal raised its score to 41 points in first place in the Saudi League table, with a seven-point difference in front of Al-Nasr, its closest rival.
After the victory, Fahd bin Nafel went down to Al Hilal’s dressing room to congratulate the players on the great victory over the traditional rival and maintaining the top spot in the league.
A video of Al Hilal president with the players, who asked him for a generous reward and kept chanting the number “100,” was spread on social media.
According to what the video showed, Ibn Nafel immediately responded to the request, referring to the disbursement of 100,000 Saudi riyals (about 375,000 dollars) to each player, which was later confirmed by Saudi media.
