Benzema Stuns on Al‑Hilal Debut With 3 Goals + Assist in 6–0 Rout!
Karim Benzema wasted no time making history at his new club Al‑Hilal, scoring a sensational hat‑trick on his debut as the Saudi Pro League leaders thrashed Al‑Akhdoud 6–0 in the 21st round of the season. It was a dream start for the French legend in blue.
The 38‑year‑old, who joined Al‑Hilal just days earlier after leaving Al‑Ittihad, opened the scoring with a stylish back‑heel finish before doubling his tally with a close‑range strike early in the second half. He completed the treble four minutes later to seal a brilliant personal milestone.
Benzema didn’t stop there — he also set up Al‑Hilal’s fourth goal, showcasing complete dominance on his first outing in the Saudi top flight. The veteran’s instant impact helped his side storm to a comprehensive victory and underline their title credentials.
Salem Al‑Dawsari later added a brace to complete the rout, making it an even more memorable night for Al‑Hilal fans.
In media remarks after the match, Benzema expressed his happiness at the warm welcome from his teammates and fans and stressed his willingness to give his all for the club.
