Neymar once again caused concern in Al Hilal and in Brazil when he was injured at the end of the match he was playing in the AFC Champions League.
The Al Hilal crowd was excited about Neymar's return. The Brazilian footballer, who had suffered a torn ligament in October 2023 in a Brazil vs. Uruguay in the Qualifiers, added 15 minutes on October 21 vs. Al Ain for the third day of the Group Stage of the AFC Champions League.
And this Monday, November 4, was his second match of his return (the seventh in total since he signed the contract with the Saudi team) for the continental competition (for the Saudi Pro League he will be able to play again starting in January, given that Al Hilal released its quota at the beginning of the season as it was not clear when it would return).
However, the alarms went off again since Neymar had to be replaced after suffering a new discomfort. The former Barcelona and PSG player entered in the 58th minute for Abdullah Al-Hamdan and in the 87th minute Jorge Jesús, the Portuguese coach of Al Hilal, had to replace him with Mohammed Al-Qahtani, complaining of pain in his right leg.
