It will be difficult to remember only the new coronation of Al-Hilal, winner of its 34th consecutive match, Thursday evening during the final of the Saudi Arabian Super Cup against Al-Ittihad (4-1). An improbable incident indeed marked the post-match in Jeddah.
Moroccan striker Abderrazak Hamdallah, who had allowed Al-Ittihad to equalize in the first period by beating his compatriot Yassine Bounou (1-1, 21st), first headed towards a spectator located at the bottom of a stand of the King Abdullah Sports City stadium, to throw water in his direction.

The spectator’s reaction was then very violent towards this partner of Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kanté, since he attacked him… with two big lashes, as shown a video shared by the Spanish newspaper Marca on social networks.
The 33-year-old Moroccan international, who notably entered the game in the semi-final of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar against the France team (0-2), then sought to fight with this spectator, but he was held by a member of the Al-Ittihad staff.
