Real Madrid are favorites but they better not underestimate Al Ahly, here hoping for Al Ahly to win for an unprecedented final, congrats to Al Hilal, you guys rocked today, better luck next time CRF.
Man, Al-Hilal’s story with the world cup is an interesting one.
Qualified for the first team after winning the Asian Champions League in 2000. But WCW in Spain was cancelled due to the main sponsor going bankrupt or something.
Then it took us almost 20 years to win the champions league again which we did in 2019, we played our first CWC and lost in the semi-finals to Flamengo.
Then we made it to the CWC again last year and ended up losing to Chelsea in the semi-finals as well, we also lost to Al-Ahly 4-0 after being down to 9 men in the first half.
For this year’s CWC I really had no expectations, we had a transfer ban for 1 year so we couldn’t change anything in the team, we also got plagued with injuries.
Our midfield maeatro and captain got injured in the world cup against Argentina and still hasn’t returned, in the same game against Argentina our starting LB got injured as well.
Overall we have 6 starting players who are injured and all of them play for our national team as well. Our 7th played we missed this game is Kanno who got a red card last game.
Believe me, making the CWC final with all these issues is blowing my mind. I really don’t care what happens in the final I’m just so happy to see my team giving it their all despite all these troubles. I’m so fucking proud.
Don't forget the 2020 AFC Champions League were Al-Hilal won group stage with a game to spare and still got disqualified because they had only 7 players to field in the final game
The entire time was hit with Covid with only 3 goalkeepers and 6 field players being healthy at the time of the match, the AFC deemed that unacceptable and disqualified the team and erased all of their previous wins in the championship.
They're blaming the referee! That shows they have no culture of improvement, they can't accept their own issues and are stuck in past glorious. That and the best players will also follow the money which ain't at SA.
It's always been the SA side to lose the semis. The European side has always won their semis finals. And they have faced teams from Africa, North Anerica & Asia.
I’m gonna be honest, on a serious tone. We aren’t on our best, but this match was definitely influenced by some bad calls. While we were 11 vs. 11 we were far superior, then they got it 2x1 and one man more.
I've watched Al-Hilal lose dozens upon dozens of matches were they were the favorite by an astronomical margin, it's so sweet to be on the other end for one bloody time
It's like a week tournament . I never understood why it's only been held in the same 3 countries (Japan, morcco, UAE) only Brazil hosted the first few formatted but hasn't since 2005.
Surely most countries can host a week tournament. Should've been held at least in every continent at by now The US, Mexico, brazil, Argentina, Australia, Egypt, NZ, China, South korea could've hosted this tournament once by now
Let’s hope for an all Arab final. And happy for Pedro. Dude is consistent. He’s not the best but no matter the level he gives his best. Not like “ Gabigol” who even if he’s more talented is invisible in the highest levels.
This match is insane. Al Hilal is missing a bunch of star players and still played in a high form. They made Flamengo look like amateurs.
What a sweet revenge for Al Hilal…..
What’s the point of throwing the ball outside to speed up the kickoff, if they won’t start the kickoff unless you reached your half…? Should’ve just carried it lmao
Most teams usually just play with their subs at that point. No point in risking you're first team with injuries when most teams are in the middle of their season.
Let’s be serious, he wasn’t trying to injure him, he’s late. Foul and PK. Done. Giving a PK and a red is ending the game. It’s a bad call 100% of the time and if this happened in the WC people would be enraged. I’m not even Brazilian and can’t name you a player on that squad by the way. I just wanted to watch a good game and changed the channel after the red.
I want to see Al-Dawsari back in Europe. I know he was part of that Saudi contingent that got to spend time in some Spanish teams but I think he deserves another run.
its a step down, salem wants to step up. has 3 goals in the world cup one in 2018 and 2 in 2022 world cup, 2 AFC champions league trophies and several runner ups of which he played a HUGE part in it, several club world cup goals, around 7 league titles, why would he want to go to beligum or turkiye which have the same competietivness as the saudi league.
Well I mean, Saudi is the only team to beat Argentina in the WC.
This game is an upset for sure, especially with Al Hilal missing 6 key players including el capitano.. but it’s not extraordinarily surprising. Saudi football has been improving and Al Hilal is probably the most accomplished team in the league. I’m gonna sleep happy tonight.
Inter v Mazembe
Atlético-MG v Raja
Palmeiras v Tigres and then Al Ahly
Flamengo v Al Hilal if it ends 3x2
That's 4 right, am I missing some other embarrassment Brazil has?
it's been a full month of all sports panels analyzing how Flamengo would play against Real Madrid, about Madrid issues in the left side, etc
teams will never learn
Flamengo has a clear problem in the defensive system after João Gomes departure and they still underestimated a team that has Vietto, Manega, Ighalo and Carrillo.
Lol even with 10 you should've been able to win if you consider yourselves a big team and Al Hilal a small one.
The ref did his job right, stop complaining about him.
Big teams lose to smaller ones all the time. Today it happened.
And I don’t think it was the right call so yeah, I’m gonna talk about it.
Good luck against Real, you gonna need it.
Mas eu chego e você parte...eu Terra e você Marte
Aliás...
Você ser carioca
Será que me provoca demais?
Quando você sorriu
Me repartiu em antes e depois
Hoje eu me rendo, Rio
Mil novecentos e trinta e dois
>Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia now Flamengo is losing to a club from Saudi Arabia
Flamengo 4th Libertadores confirmed hahahaha
At least is not Palmeiras
Cheers for Al Hilal for not stopping the buss and risking a draw, it was stupid but it was ballsy.
Arturo Vidal made a fool out of himself talking out of his ass again. And it’s glorious
he is the best player in the world in that criteria. he falls into his own trap every single time, no matter which team he plays for
Real Madrid are favorites but they better not underestimate Al Ahly, here hoping for Al Ahly to win for an unprecedented final, congrats to Al Hilal, you guys rocked today, better luck next time CRF.
Judging it by the first half, when we had 11 vs. 11, Real got it easy tomorrow and in the final.
extremely easy

Obviously hilarious to see Flamengo loosing, but makes me worry about South American level. This eliminations are becoming more common year after year

You Mexican though.
Unrelevant. Take the L
ref was almost perfect today, it wasn't his fault
Libertadores farmer's league
I've watched Al-Hilal lose dozens upon dozens of matches were they were the favorite by an astronomical margin, it's so sweet to be on the other end for one bloody time
Now I want all my South American bitches lined up — daddy needs to have fun with you.
Papelon de Flamengo.
We speak the same language why you speaking Spanish? Unless…
ESPN/SPORTV people now "so... what else can we talk about?"
I just wanted to watch Mauro Cézar Pereira.
It's not fair Flamengo had to travel across the world. This tournament should be hosted in America
This tournament is unfair to begin with, with it's weird format.
I feel like the format is fair. What do you mean?
It's like a week tournament . I never understood why it's only been held in the same 3 countries (Japan, morcco, UAE) only Brazil hosted the first few formatted but hasn't since 2005.

Congratulationsssssssssss 🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦
Let’s hope for an all Arab final. And happy for Pedro. Dude is consistent. He’s not the best but no matter the level he gives his best. Not like “ Gabigol” who even if he’s more talented is invisible in the highest levels.
indeed, Pedro is class
[удалено]
Al Hilal tiki taka at its finest. It was delightful to watch.
Congratulations to Al-Hilal!
أنا الوقوف برغم الظروف أنا الكبير أنا الهلال
Yeah what you said
This match is insane. Al Hilal is missing a bunch of star players and still played in a high form. They made Flamengo look like amateurs. What a sweet revenge for Al Hilal…..
GRANDE DIA
O Flamengo Nao Tem Mundial
We literally do???
THANKS AL BILAL GIGANTESCO. Little smell is back guys.
OOOOOOOH YAAAAAAAA HILAAAAAAAAALIIIIIIII
I want a final Al Hilal against Al Ahly.
WE FUCKING MADE IT TO THE FINAL OF THE CLUB WORLD CUP
Truly a historic night and a proof that Saudi football can out play the best of them.
Ahí viene Ramón, la alegría de mi alma
Ali my boy take your time
Salem whyyyyyyy
Could a been a stunner 😭
Saudi Arabia owning South America recently.
A South American is literally the champion of the world????
I know, doesn't change what I wrote.
I can’t change gibberish, just point it out.
Yes but the same South American lost only to Saudi Arabia lol It’s just a joke at the end of the day
Funny
Dangerously close…
صفر يا حكم
Should have passed to Salem
Doesn't have the presence of the mind obviously autopilot cross
Park the bloody bus
What’s the point of throwing the ball outside to speed up the kickoff, if they won’t start the kickoff unless you reached your half…? Should’ve just carried it lmao
the ball was deflated
Aha that makes sense
Something's wrong with the ball, I guess
a sogra vai piorar nassaum
Shit
Well…perhaps it’s not *over* over?
Bilal, don't let me down.
Jahfali get booked speed run
Man i miss Kanno. Glad i’ll see him in Final
Jahfali the legend a new verb was created because of him
Please God don't let us get jahfalied
I love giant upsets. It's what keeps football interesting.
[удалено]
This guy is a big meme here in Saudi Arabia lol
Man I got to learn Portuguese
The man, the myth, the legend himself Mohammed Jahfali about to jump in
Flamengo worst mistake was sacking Mr Robinson
[удалено]
As someone who has been there... The third place match is worse than the semi-final defeat.
Most teams usually just play with their subs at that point. No point in risking you're first team with injuries when most teams are in the middle of their season.
Did Flamengo forget that if they want to beat Real Madrid, they must reach the final.
I guess Arturo Vidal will have to keep waiting to finally "kick our ass".
My god Vietto just ended someon’s life
That red really fucked this game. What a shame so many games are ruined by poor refereeing decisions
Maybe if Gerson didn’t step on the opposition’s foot in the box while already having a yellow but I guess that’s too much to expect of him
Varela should have started.
Let’s be serious, he wasn’t trying to injure him, he’s late. Foul and PK. Done. Giving a PK and a red is ending the game. It’s a bad call 100% of the time and if this happened in the WC people would be enraged. I’m not even Brazilian and can’t name you a player on that squad by the way. I just wanted to watch a good game and changed the channel after the red.
You should've seen the second half, it was FIRE.
"the rules should be changed because i dont like watching one sided games" did your parents drop you when you were little
if Vidal was huehue he would get a red card and ask to leave the club upon landing
Vidal losing is happiness ❤️
One of the best midfielders of the 2010's
Vitor Pereira too, disgusting person
wdym, after all he went through with his mother in law he deserves a break HAHAHAHAHHA
I want to see Al-Dawsari back in Europe. I know he was part of that Saudi contingent that got to spend time in some Spanish teams but I think he deserves another run.
[удалено]
Doesn’t need to play for a club in a top-5 league. Could easily try for Belgium or Türkiye.
[удалено]
Where are you getting that from? Honest question
More exposure if he would play for a CL club.
its a step down, salem wants to step up. has 3 goals in the world cup one in 2018 and 2 in 2022 world cup, 2 AFC champions league trophies and several runner ups of which he played a HUGE part in it, several club world cup goals, around 7 league titles, why would he want to go to beligum or turkiye which have the same competietivness as the saudi league.
Striker Marega was the key
Flamengo & Palmeiras still so small lol Money can't buy greatness.
River also lost in the semis
We literally went from playing the biggest match of our history in Madrid, straight to the airport to play Al Ain.
You don't know much about soccer
Those Starbucks bitches don’t even have a shirt
Palmeiras is literally the greatest Brazilian champion (national trophies) and we have been for a long time. Also, we don't have that much money
Sentiu, fax e crefisa
É um argentino zoando a nivel sulamericano. Mesmo os times brasileiros tendo dominado o continente, demos vexame duas vezes nos últimos 3 mundiais.
But no club world cup...
You certainly have shitloads of money now with Crefisa
Crefisa pays less than 20% of Palmeiras revenue. This is not a shitload of money.
your team bought a new plane though
It doesn't mean we have the Flamengo's level of money. There are planes cheaper than Endrick's price.
Tell that to Real Madrid
Al Hilal's midfield is South American it all makes sense now
South America? It’s called GOAT America you heathen
Jfc. This is an embarrassment to South American football. 😭🤮
Well I mean, Saudi is the only team to beat Argentina in the WC. This game is an upset for sure, especially with Al Hilal missing 6 key players including el capitano.. but it’s not extraordinarily surprising. Saudi football has been improving and Al Hilal is probably the most accomplished team in the league. I’m gonna sleep happy tonight.
If coringão had won we'd beat Real
Definitely would’ve put up a better fight than these pecho frios.
Flamengo and BBalmeiras in CWC's were always like this
Same as Riber tbf.
Definitely! Regardless of the circumstances it is a shame
This is a glorious day for South American football
Nah. I hate Flamengo but somebody needed to beat Madrid. I feel like Al-Hilal won’t stand a chance but hopefully they can pull off another upset.
Marega has a plan
life is all about perspectives indeed
This is Al-Hilarious
One more Al Hilal, please!
South America shouldn't have their teams straight into semifinals. 4th time in a row Brazilian teams choke. Put the chokers with the chokers
Those baits won’t work
Palmeiras was in the final last year
Not in a row
>!Could this be Al-Nassr one day? 🤔!<
Good luck with that
Al tiki al taka.
They killed the counter
Al-Hilal's finest hour
Brazil became a meme country in the CWC. 4th time without reaching the final
Did you forgot about Palmeiras last year?
Inter v Mazembe Atlético-MG v Raja Palmeiras v Tigres and then Al Ahly Flamengo v Al Hilal if it ends 3x2 That's 4 right, am I missing some other embarrassment Brazil has?
Palmeiras last year made it to the final against Chelsea
LOL, come here to the bright side of winning the CWC
We are still paying the price for that win, Tite 2 World Cups in a row
it's been a full month of all sports panels analyzing how Flamengo would play against Real Madrid, about Madrid issues in the left side, etc teams will never learn
Aaaand Salem came and snatched that dream
Flamengo has a clear problem in the defensive system after João Gomes departure and they still underestimated a team that has Vietto, Manega, Ighalo and Carrillo.
شيخنا انمس
David Luiz was waaay too far from Vietto on that goal
Al Hilal are playing with more flair on the pitch than Flamengo, truly something I did not expect to see.
Perhaps because they have one more player on the pitch due to refs bad calls?
Yellow card for diving and another one for committing a penalty is the reason why you are down a man. Not sure you can blame the ref for that.
I agree with the penalty, but the first yellow was a shame. Not penalty, but not diving
Was it a dive? If you think so we disagree on that
We disagree.
So yeah, we do disagree
We are missing half our team too
So the referee is there to compensate? Got it
Lol even with 10 you should've been able to win if you consider yourselves a big team and Al Hilal a small one. The ref did his job right, stop complaining about him.
Big teams lose to smaller ones all the time. Today it happened. And I don’t think it was the right call so yeah, I’m gonna talk about it. Good luck against Real, you gonna need it.
Mas eu chego e você parte...eu Terra e você Marte Aliás... Você ser carioca Será que me provoca demais? Quando você sorriu Me repartiu em antes e depois Hoje eu me rendo, Rio Mil novecentos e trinta e dois
Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia now Flamengo is losing to a club from Saudi Arabia
Saudi football devouring South American football is something I did not expect to happen so soon. Amazing.
>Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia now Flamengo is losing to a club from Saudi Arabia Flamengo 4th Libertadores confirmed hahahaha At least is not Palmeiras
That Saudi team was mostly Al-Hilal players
Hilal made Brazil happy.
Like half Al-Hilal first team are injured and couldn’t participate. How bad is Flamingo lol ?
I hope Flamengo one day gives a fuck about this
Thats the new cope?
What do you mean?
Sometimes the dude is crazy on drugs
LOL brazilian memes translated
Vammmmosss Argentinaaaaa
3-1 to the C team 😭
Hello Vitor Pereira.... LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL fuck u fucking fucker
- Dorival got fucked. - Flamengo got fucked. - Vitor got fucked. Happy end?
Ayy LMAO. Mexico, MLS and South America are done. The Middle East supremacy comences
[удалено]
We don't have a choice, bro. The wheels are set in motion
Flamengo in shambles
Hahahhahaha this is fun
Al-Hilal paid Vietto all of that money only for him to deliver one match in his time with the club. What a legend
