Saudi Arabia Pro League: Mumbai City FC came up with an attacking display but went down to Saudi Arabia Pro League champions Al Hilal 0-2 in their Group D match in the AFC Champions League at the DY Patil Stadium in Narul on Monday.

Having lost the away match to the Saudi Champions 6-0, Mumbai City FC coach DEs Buckingham shored up his defence by including Rahul Bheke in the backline, replacing Vikram Singh in the attack. The Islanders put up a better display even though they went down 0-2.

With Al Hilal coming into this game without the talismanic Brazilian Neymar (JR), who will be sidelined with a knee injury for several months, head coach Jorge de Jesus fielded a strong lineup with Ruben Neves coming in the centre alongside Aldawsari and Kanno. Aleksander Mitrovic who scored a wonderful hattrick in the away leg led the front line once again.
