Karim Benzema has had a spectacular debut with Al Hilal, scoring a hat-trick in his first match with the Saudi team.

The French striker scored in the 31st, 60th and 64th minutes, giving Al Hilal a clear 3-0 lead in this match.


He played 73 minutes before being removed from the field by coach Simone Inzaghi.

Benzema joined Al Hilal just 72 hours ago, after leaving Al Ittihad - a transfer that caused widespread reactions and great debate in Saudi Arabia.

The 2023 Ballon d'Or winner was also a protagonist last season, helping Al Ittihad win the championship title, before making a sensational move to arch-rivals Al Hilal.

Benzema's move to Al Hilal only strengthens the club's leading position in the standings. /Telegrafi/
