In the 52nd minute, Brazilian winger Malcom gave Al Hilal through a header before Erling Haaland restored parity three minute later by poking in from a corner.

In extra time, former Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly headed Al Hilal back ahead in the 94th minute before Phil Foden leveled up 10 minutes later.

Leonardo scored a brace in the 112th minute to send Al Hilal to the quarterfinal against Brazilian side Fluminense, who defeated Inter Milan 2-0 on Monday night, per BBC.

Al Hilal coach Simone Inzaghi has hailed his player for overcoming Manchester City in the FIFA Club World Cup.

Speaking with Sky Sports, the former Inter Milan manager, the players were great with and without possession of the ball.

Inzaghi described Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola as the best coach in the world. He said:

"The key to this result was the players, the heart they put on the pitch.

"We had to do something extraordinary because we knew how good Manchester City are, we knew we had to climb Mount Everest without oxygen, and we were great.

"Guardiola is the best coach in the world, but tonight we did our best and we deserved the result."

Saudi giants Al-Hilal reportedly tabled a jaw-dropping offer to lure Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen, promising £40 million annually (roughly ₦72 billion).

The package included a tax-free weekly wage of £425,000, the same offer reportedly rejected by Osimhen last year, per Goal.

Legit.ng earlier reported that Al-Hilal have reportedly pulled out of the race to sign Victor Osimhen after receiving no response from the Super Eagles forward, despite boosting their salary offer.

Al-Hilal made an official proposal worth €70 million, including add-ons to Napoli, with the majority of the fee paid in a fixed amount upfront.

They also proposed a salary worth €30 million to the Nigerian forward, but he refused to give a green light even after the offer was improved by €5 million.
