Italian coach Simone Inzaghi, head coach of Al Hilal, confirmed the difficulty of his team's match against Al-Fateh in the ninth round of the Roshn Saudi League, noting that the early penalty awarded to the opponent complicated the game.

Inzaghi added during the press conference that his players showed strong spirit and managed to turn the tables and win the match, despite the early pressure and the difficulty of regaining balance after the team's international break.

He pointed out the outstanding performance of both Mohammed Kano and Salem Al-Dawsari, affirming that the players delivered good performances, despite Kano losing the ball in some moments, which is natural after a long break.

The coach mentioned that returning to matches after the international break requires extra effort from the players, emphasizing that the team struggled but showed the ability to adapt and pressure the opponent to achieve the important victory.

Inzaghi also touched on the repeated red card incidents the team recently faced, stressing the necessity of discipline, as any player receiving a red card makes the team's tasks more difficult in upcoming matches.

The coach concluded his speech by confirming that work is ongoing to correct mistakes and improve discipline on the field, to ensure delivering the best performance levels in the coming rounds and maintaining the team's position in the league.
