Ever since Neymar moved to the SPL, the forward has struggled. Rumors emerged about his feud with manager, Jorge Jesus. The superstar claimed these allegations were false. The Brazilian, however, is now starting to show his worth. He scored his first goal for his side in a significant 3-0 win over Nassaji Mazandaran. But the joy didn’t last long enough, as his Al Hilal captain took away the spotlight for a peculiar reason. 

Al Hilal now leads the AFC Champions League with 4 points ahead of Navbahor only on goal difference. They have been in superb form recently. But the club will be without its experienced captain in the coming fixtures, who will face severe consequences for his actions.

Al-Hilal captain suspended for actions and faces penalty.

Al-Hilal captain Salman Al-Faraj picked up a red card in his side’s 3-0 win in the AFC Champions League. He may be subjected to an additional penalty from the Disciplinary Committee and miss more than one match in the AFC Champions League.

This can cause a lot of trouble for the Saudi giants, as the veteran brings a lot of composure and calmness in his side’s midfield. The captain, who is in his 10th season with the club, shoved the face of Amir Hussain Houshmand and received a straight red. He might face even more disciplinary actions.

Despite the red card and suspension, one piece of positive news for the Al Hilal fans has to be Neymar’s debut goal in the AFC Champions League. The former PSG forward has now been involved in 3 goals in 5 appearances. Given his price tag, Al Hilal higher-ups will be hoping he lives up to their expectations.
