Benrahma leads Neom to victory against Belmadi's Al-Duhail

Algerian coach Djamel Belmadi suffered his first loss of the season with Qatari club Al-Duhail after a 3-0 defeat against Saudi side Neom in the Gulf Champions League. Algerian international Saïd Benrahma dominated the match, scoring two of the three goals that secured the win for his club. Al-Duhail's squad failed to counter the high tempo set by Neom throughout the ninety minutes, bringing their perfect start to the season to a halt. The clash between the two Algerian figures resulted in a clear victory for Benrahma, who stole the spotlight, leaving Belmadi to deal with his first setback of the current campaign.
