On Tuesday evening, Algerian international player Houssam Aouar made his official debut for the new season after recently participating with his national team in the World Cup. Aouar showcased his skills as he helped his team, Al-Ittihad Saudi, secure a significant victory against Al-Jazira Club from the UAE with a score of 4-1 in the preliminary round of the Asian Champions League.
During the match, Aouar made a notable contribution by scoring the third goal in the 54th minute, demonstrating his value on the field. This victory not only highlights Aouar's return to competitive play but also grants Al-Ittihad Saudi a ticket to the group stage of the prestigious Asian Champions League, which is set to commence in mid-September.
It is worth noting that in the previous two editions of this continental competition, the title was claimed by Riyad Mahrez and his team, Al-Ahli Saudi, showcasing the competitive nature and pedigree of Saudi Arabian football on the continental stage.
