The Italian head coach of Al-Hilal's first football team, Simone Inzaghi, expressed his dissatisfaction with the result of Neom match, saying: "Everyone saw that in the first half we were not at the required level, we conceded two goals, and we were unlucky, and the players gave what they had during the course of the match, and such losses show us some important points that must be worked on."

Regarding his feeling after the defeat, Inzaghi explained that the result was frustrating for the team and its fans, and said: "We feel sorry for our fans, and there is a kind of frustration, and the loss is upsetting for us, especially as it is my first since coming to Saudi Arabia."

Inzaghi touched on the two goals conceded by the team, pointing to the importance of addressing mistakes, and said: "The two goals came from a set-piece and an own goal, and we were not successful in dealing with them, and we will do a lot of work in the coming period on set-pieces and the mistakes that happened."

About the players' concentration during the match, Inzaghi said: "We created five chances in the first half, and Mohammed Kanno's shot was close to scoring, but the goalkeeper managed to save it, and such losses push us to rearrange some important matters."

This came in the press conference that followed the match between Al-Hilal and its guest Neom, as part of Roshn League competitions.
