Al-Hilal’s fantastic form is now a world record. With Malcom and Renan Lodi on the field, Jorge Jesus’ team reached 27 consecutive victories, matching the feat achieved by The New Saints from Wales in 2016. The Saudi giants have been on a winning streak since September 2023, excluding friendlies.

Neymar was part of the first three victories before suffering a season-ending injury. In October, the former Santos star suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus in his left knee while representing the Brazilian national team against Uruguay in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
