Saudi Arabia Super Cup: Benzema teammate whipped by fan after Al-Ittihad defeat

It’s hard to believe this scene is real. However, this Thursday, after Al-Ittihad’s defeat in the Saudi Arabian Super Cup against Al-Hilal (1-4), Abderrazak Hamdallah, the only scorer for his team, received violent belt blows from a man in the stands.

In the images, the Moroccan footballer approaches the man in question after the final whistle. He throws the water contained in his flask towards her. In response, this supporter gave him several very violent blows with his belt. Several players finally came to the aid of Abderrazak Hamdallah, teammate of Karim Benzema.

It is difficult to say whether the perpetrator of the attack was a fan of Al-Ittihad or Al-Hilal. In the images of the scene, widely relayed on social networks, it seems that Abderrazak Hamdallah and him exchanged words before their scuffle.

During this meeting, Karim Benzema was the starter. The former Real Madrid striker has not scored and his poor form continues. Since his arrival in Saudi Arabia, the 2022 Golden Ball has not really met expectations and regularly claims his discomfort.

For Al-Hilal, Malcom, the former Girondins de Bordeaux and FC Barcelona player, scored twice. The Saudi club, still without Neymar, victim of a cruciate ligament rupture in October, adds a title to its collection. He is also leader of the Saudi championship. Well ahead of Al-Ittihad, fourth with 30 points less.
