Italian Simone Inzaghi, the coach of Al-Hilal, confirmed that his team delivered a strong performance against Al-Khulood, noting that the match came as preparation for the upcoming Asian competition.

Inzaghi clarified during the press conference that the team aimed to present themselves in the best possible way, especially since it is the last match before starting preparations for the AFC Champions League.

The coach pointed out that Al Hilal created a large number of chances, with 9 shots on target, which is approximately the same rate as in the previous match against Al Taawoun.

It was evident that the difference in facing Al-Khulood lay in the precision of finishing attacks, as the players succeeded in capitalizing on opportunities more effectively compared to the previous match.

Inzaghi praised the return of Karim Benzema and Sergej Savic, emphasizing that his assessment is based on overall technical performance, not just the match result.

The coach spoke about the exclusion of Mohamed Kadri Mitai, explaining that his decisions are related to the circumstances of each match, especially with a maximum limit on the number of foreign players.

Inzaghi concluded his statements by expressing his satisfaction with the offensive effectiveness, emphasizing that capitalizing on opportunities is the decisive factor in achieving this significant victory.
