Al Hilal retaliated for losing in the Champions League final to Urawa in 2017 and the Saudi giants managed to make up for the loss in the 2014 final against Western Sydney Wanderers.
Al-Dossari specifically managed to make up for what happened two years ago when he received a red card in a 1-0 win over Urawa.

Al-Hilal (Al-Zaim) equalized the achievement of Pohang Steelers in the top of the list of the most scoring teams with three titles equal to the Korean club.
Al Hilal secured their first participation in the Club World Cup in their current form, the last win of the Asian Champions League in 2000, years before the Club World Cup in its current form.
Al-Hilal completed the contract for the Club World Cup, which will be hosted by the Qatari capital Doha from 11 to 21 December.
Al Hilal also gave Saudi Arabia their fifth title in the AFC Champions League, where they were crowned Asian champions in 1992 and 2000, while Al Ittihad Jeddah was crowned in 2004 and 2005.
