Have an interesting take?

At 31, Neymar still has time left in his career, though his frequent injuries might necessitate a reassessment of his playing style or a more carefully managed match schedule. Despite his absence, Al Hilal has demonstrated resilience and adaptability, showing they can perform effectively without their star forward. Following Neymar’s injury, the team encountered several challenges but has successfully maintained a strong position in both the Saudi Pro League and the AFC Champions League.

In the Saudi Pro League, Al Hilal has kept pace with their rivals at the top of the table. The team recently triumphed in the AFC Champions League with a 3-0 victory over Esteghlal F.C., thanks to a hat trick from Aleksandar Mitrović. Al Hilal’s defense was well-organized, effectively limiting Esteghlal’s scoring opportunities and maintaining control of the game throughout.

As Neymar’s recovery progresses, he is expected to return stronger and contribute even more to the team. Fans and media alike are following his journey closely. His recent social media post, though brief, serves as a reminder of his unwavering resolve and the passion he brings to the game.
