MY THOUGHTS

I'm always biased when it comes to blue shirts but I think we can all agree that this shirt looks appealing. The diagonal, white stripe across the front of the shirt is a unique and welcomed addition to an Adidas shirt. This is a similar design to the Legia Warszawa shirt I own, which incidentally is one of my favourite shirts in my collection. The colour scheme matches perfectly with the club logo which is always a nice bonus. I'm a fan of when the club incorporates it's name into the club shirt, usually on the neck, like they have done in this shirt. The main drawback for me is the sponsor and the blue filler behind the Arabic text. Other than that it is a welcomed inclusion to my club football shirt collection.

RANDOM CLUB FACT

Brazilian legend Rivellino played for Al-Hilal 57 times, scoring 23 goals in the process. During this time he is said to have scored the fastest goal in football history when he supposedly scored a goal direct from the kick-off after noticing the opposition goalkeeper on his knees finishing off pre-match prayers.
