The move, executed by Argentinian Luciano Vietto, came in the dying minutes of Al Hilal’s victory over Fla in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup.
Already in the 75th minute of the duel between Al Hilal and Flamengo, the “ole” began to be heard at the stadium in Tangier, Morocco. The Saudi Arabian team, coached by Argentinian Ramón Díaz, won 3-1 and showed off against the Florida. In front of this situation, Vítor Pereira sent Arturo Vidal onto the pitch, to try to give the midfield a little more hierarchy.
However, the game of the Rio de Janeiro team was not solid and the king himself ended up being the protagonist of a humiliating game. A few minutes from the end of the duel, Luciano Vietto, figure of Al Hilal this Tuesday, was surrounded by three players from Mengao near the middle of the yard; He got away from the two mark with a hitch and when he saw the third, which was the Chilean midfielder, he gave him a pipe and then went out to play. Vidal remained seated on the grass, but got up quickly to continue playing.
Unfortunately, it reflected how lucky Flamengo and Vidal would be in this game. Pedro’s goal in the throw-ins only made up for the 3-2 final loss a bit. Another failure for a South American team in the Club World Cup.
