00:00Saturday's action in the Roshan Saudi League concludes at the Prince Mohammed bin Fahd Stadium
00:11in Daman as Inform Al Khalil meet the leaders and reigning champions Al Halal. The blue wave
00:19remain unbeaten so far this season but today face George Jonas's team who've been inspired
00:25by a hometown hero.
00:30And it's Al Khalil who get the match underway. The final game on the Saturday of match week
00:4011. Al Khalil wearing all yellow defending the goal away to our left in the first half.
00:55And here's a great chance for the opening goal. And just like that Al Halal score through
01:02Marcus Leonardo. And all of that hard work from Al Khalil is undone in a blink of an eye.
01:09Well, they're trying to play out and Al Samiri just didn't see that Milikovic Savic was there.
01:16You've got to know the size of the man, the reach of his legs, lovely sliding challenge to whip that ball away.
01:23Leonardo just composed himself, had a couple of looks up there and then just slid the ball down and underneath actually.
01:30Sayic maybe feel could he have got down to get something on that because he read it.
01:36Cut that well then given away by the goalkeeper Sayic and he recovers to prevent Loddy scoring a second goal.
01:44Second goal. Oh, he's so lucky. He's so, so lucky that that deflection off Loddy just takes him wide enough that the goalkeeper can then smother the cross.
01:56Taking a big risk again. Mitrovic was just lurking to tap one home.
02:00Al Balahi and Kulabali are both forward. It was aimed towards Milikovic Savic.
02:11Cleared as far as Cancelo. And back into Mitrovic. Good save by Sayic.
02:15And he clung on at the second attempt. He did remarkably well there.
02:21The Bosnian goalkeeper to keep out the serve. Loddy.
02:24Maldusawi inside to Milikovic Savic. Opens up for the shot.
02:33And it's turned aside by Sayic. Yeah, we know he's capable of this, Milikovic Savic.
02:38He's got a wonderful strike on him. He looked up to start with and thought actually it's a good angle for him.
02:44Again, right at the goalkeeper. Just making sure. Tipping that over. Sayic.
02:54Tavia Martins at the near post. Kulabali. Milikovic Savic.
03:01And again Sayic with a really fine save to deny the serve.
03:06But when it comes through to Milikovic Savic, you think he's surely going to bury it.
03:11But still, okay. The save a minute ago was pretty simple for Sayic.
03:18This wasn't absolutely superb athleticism from the goalkeeper.
03:23Aldousawi with another corner. Deeper this time and headed in by Mitrovic.
03:30Such a familiar story. Aldousawi with the assist and Mitrovic with the finish.
03:37It's almost like he's trademarked this, where he just comes into that area.
03:42He just shoves away Al Salim, which is what the Al Kalij players are saying.
03:49But once he gets into that position, he's just so clever in the way that he
03:53just arcs that towards the near post. He knows exactly where he is.
03:57He's right in line with that near post, so he knows he's just got to guide it.
04:01Just slightly behind himself. Such a simple header in the end.
04:05For someone of Mitrovic's quality.
04:11Now Al Hamzi.
04:13Martins with the cross in.
04:15And Kulabali challenging at the near post and the penalty is being given.
04:22Roboko the player caught and it's a route back into the game for Al Khalil.
04:31And Fortunis sees it's saved and the rebounder is put in.
04:37And Al Khalil do have their goal and it's Al Salim yet again.
04:43Well, it's a terrific save from the penalty from Bono.
04:46From Fortunis.
04:49But as every striker should, there's definitely a bit of contact there.
04:52Kulabali's reaction said everything.
04:55But Bono picks right.
04:56Saves.
04:57He's so unlucky.
04:58But guess who's there to steal it away from Fortunis.
05:02And make sure the striker who's in red-hot form, Al Salim, is there.
05:07Look, he's anticipating.
05:09He's gambling that that'll be right there for him.
05:13And he says, I'll have it.
05:14I think of it, Savic.
05:19And the referee colliding with one of the Al Khalil players as Marcus Leonardo comes forward.
05:25Al Qatani.
05:27Cancelio on the outside.
05:28Al Qatani curls it.
05:30And he scored brilliantly.
05:35Well, Al Khalil will look to the referee.
05:38He collided with one of their players.
05:41But as Al Khalil counterattacked, it is the youngster who restores their two-goal lead.
05:52And that could turn out to be the key goal of the game.
05:57Well, Trumanis.
05:59Well, isn't it a case of offside?
06:04Well, if it is, it's very, very close.
06:05And it's offside.
06:09No goal.
06:14Now, Fabio Martins.
06:17Looking for Al Salim.
06:18Al Balahi with a poor clearance.
06:20Possibilities here for the home side.
06:22Khalid Neri.
06:23And now, Al Salim with a great chance.
06:25It's deflected.
06:26And it's in!
06:27Another for Al Salim.
06:33And Al Khalil have come from two goals down.
06:36And the top-scoring Saudi strikes again.
06:39Well, this time, it comes from a mistake from the champions.
06:43Al Balahi with a poor pass.
06:46Neri just takes his time.
06:48Draws in Lodi.
06:49The pass is perfect for Al Salim.
06:52But he gets a massive stroke of luck.
06:55Al Hamdan.
06:56He'll be full of energy.
06:57The cross deflected, though.
06:58Al Hamzi on the stretch.
07:00Gets there before Nasser Aldasawi.
07:02But now, João Cancelo wriggling to the byline.
07:05But far too much air on the cross.
07:09Oh, the first bit was just beautiful from Cancelo.
07:12A little flick through the legs.
07:14And then you can just see he wants to stand this up for Mitrovic.
07:17Go and attack.
07:18Too close to the goalkeeper.
07:20That's lovely, though.
07:27Al Salim spins into an offside position.
07:30But here is Aldasawi.
07:33And here is Neri.
07:34What a great chance.
07:35Martins!
07:39And Al Khalil take the lead.
07:43And they've come from two goals down against the reigning champions.
07:48And this could be a moment of history in the Roshan Saudi league.
07:54Al Halal's 46th game unbeaten run is now in real peril.
08:01With five minutes to play.
08:03Al Khalil lead 3-2.
08:07And this will be checked.
08:08Kristaps Liatneks of Latvia.
08:10Here's the VAR.
08:12And I think they will check for offside against Al Salim.
08:17But he didn't seem to touch that ball as it was played through.
08:21Could feel like a massive moment, this.
08:23And the goal has been given Al Khalil lead 3-2.
08:36Oh, Al Halal about to lose their unbeaten streak.
08:44Roboco.
08:45Oh, he's lost out inside the penalty area.
08:46Natsur Aldasawi is deflected off Tisaron that it's claimed by Seic.
08:51And he was fouled by Mitrovic and it will be a free kick.
08:57Oh, he just thought as that was stood up.
09:00Would Mitrovic get on the end of it?
09:02Tisaron though.
09:03Big header.
09:05Big header needed up in the air to allow his goalkeeper Sage to claim.
09:09And it's one back, Al Ghanan.
09:13But now it's lost, but they can't get the ball forward.
09:15But it's a free kick for handball for Al Khalil and that may be it.
09:22It's all over.
09:24And it's over.
09:27For the first time in 46 games, Al Halal have lost in the Roshan Saudi league.
09:35And Al Khalil can celebrate a night they will talk about for years.
09:45They came from two goals down.
09:49Al Halal are beaten.
09:52And the title race is alive in the Roshan Saudi league.
09:59The biggest moment in the Roshan Saudi league.
10:02Not just this season, but for a couple of seasons.
10:06Al Khalil three, Al Halal two.
