An embarrassing scandal has occurred in Saudi Arabia, after the end of the final match of the Cup, between Al Ittihad and Al Hilal.
The team with the French stars, Karim Benzema and Ngolo Kante, lost the final with the result 1-4 in front of the other Saudi team, where Milinkovic-Saviç, Koulibaly, Mitrovic and Neves play.
This loss seems to have cost the footballer Abdelazik Hamdala dearly, who was whipped by a fan from the stands.
The Moroccan striker of Al Ittihad was leaving the field and heard the fan cursing him, so he went to ask him why, but when he got close, Hamdala threw water at the fan, who in turn took out a whip and struck him several times.
The stewards then intervene quickly to avoid aggravating the situation.
