Brazil star Neymar finally made his debut for Al Hilal in a 6-1 thrashing of Al-Riyadh, who had a certain former Kaizer Chiefs star in their side.
The Brazilian joined the Saudi Pro League side from Paris Saint-Germain last month but only made his debut on Friday evening.

Selecao's all-time leading scorer came on as a second-half substitute in place of countryman Michael in the 64th minute against Al-Riyad at Faisal bin Fahd Stadium.
Former AmaKhosi star Knowledge Musona was in action for the visiting side and completed the full 90 minutes while picking up a yellow card.

While he did not find the back of the net on his debut, Neymar did set up Malcom's goal in the 83rd minute.
Neymar was offered the chance to take a penalty in the 87th minute but politely declined, much to disappointment of the home supporters who let a few boos.
Salem Al Dawsari bagged a brace on the evening, while Aleksander Mitrovic, Yasir Al Shahrani and Nasser Al Dawsari bagged the other goals on the night.
