English star Harry Kane continued to make history in German stadiums, delivering an exceptional performance that led his team Bayern Munich to a resounding and well-deserved victory over their host Werder Bremen by three goals to nil, in the match that brought them together on Saturday as part of the twenty-second round of the German Football League (Bundesliga).

The details of the match and Kane's brilliance
meant the Bavarian giants didn't give their opponents much time to settle. Harry Kane opened the scoring in the 22nd minute from a penalty awarded after a VAR review following a foul on the promising Lennart Karl. Just three minutes later, "Prince Harry" doubled the lead with a low shot that struck the post and nestled into the net, cementing his dominance at the top of the league's scoring charts with 26 goals and bringing his total goals in all competitions this season to 41.

In the second half, despite veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer leaving due to a recurrence of a calf injury, Bayern maintained their balance, with international Leon Goretzka completing the team's hat-trick in the 70th minute, benefiting from a pass from substitute Alphonso Davies.

The importance of the win and the title race
: This victory is of paramount importance to Bayern Munich, as it marks their second consecutive win after the Augsburg setback, bringing their points tally to 57. With this win, the Bavarians have restored their six-point lead over their closest rival and traditional adversary, Borussia Dortmund, who had put pressure on the team with their 4-0 victory over Mainz. This win strengthens Bayern's chances of retaining their beloved title and sends a strong message to their rivals about the team's technical and mental stability in the crucial stages of the season.

Werder Bremen's crisis deepens
. On the other hand, Werder Bremen is experiencing one of its most difficult periods, with its points tally stuck at 19 in 16th place, a position that threatens to force a relegation playoff. This is the second consecutive defeat for new coach Daniel Theon, putting the once-great club under immense pressure to avoid relegation, especially since it hasn't tasted victory since last November.

other matches
, Hoffenheim continued their strong performances with a 3-0 victory over Freiburg, consolidating their third-place position and bringing them closer to their Champions League dream. Bayer Leverkusen also bounced back with a resounding 4-0 win against St. Pauli, climbing to fourth place and intensifying the battle for European qualification.

After a long wait and a series of disappointing results, Al-Najma's first football team finally tasted victory, achieving their first win of the 2025/2026 Saudi Professional League season. This valuable win came in the team's 21st attempt, as they defeated their guest, Al-Kholoud, by two goals to one, in the match that took place on Saturday evening as part of the 22nd round of the competition. It should be noted that the team has one match postponed.

Changing the coaching staff and the positive shock effect

This victory was more than just a fleeting three points; it was a direct result of the decisive administrative decisions recently made by the Al-Najma Club board. The win coincided with the debut of the new head coach, Serbian-British Nestor El Maestro, who took over from the dismissed Portuguese coach, Mario Silva. It seems the "shock" strategy has quickly paid off, as El Maestro has successfully reorganized the team and energized the players to achieve what they had failed to do in the previous 20 matches. This provides a positive indication of the new coach's ability to handle the psychological and technical pressures surrounding the team.

Performance analysis and disastrous figures

This result halted the team's continuous bleeding of points, as they had played 21 league matches without a single victory until this round, along with 5 draws and 15 heavy defeats. The statistics reveal the true struggles of "Faris Unaizah," particularly defensively, having conceded 42 goals – a very high rate that reflects the fragility of their back line and its vulnerability to opponents. Conversely, Al-Najma's attack has only managed 20 goals, an average of less than one goal per game, highlighting the significant task facing the new coaching staff in finding a balance between defense and attack.

The team's situation and the struggle for survival

Despite the overwhelming joy of this victory, the reality of the league standings remains painful for Al-Najma fans. Following this win, the team's points tally has risen to a mere 8, leaving them languishing at the bottom of the Saudi Professional League. This precarious position presents the team with a critical and extremely difficult challenge in their fight for survival. Al-Najma now needs not only to win, but also to achieve a series of positive results and hope for slip-ups from their direct rivals if they are to cling to their slim hopes of remaining in the top flight and escaping the looming threat of relegation.

In the world of football, hatred doesn't arise from nothing, and controversy doesn't erupt without cause. Often, consistent success is the initial spark, and unwavering dominance is the fuel that keeps it burning. This explains the recurring question in Saudi and Arab sporting circles: Why don't they like you, Al-Hilal?

The answer lies in the fact that you didn't wait long to arrive, nor did you go through all the stumbling blocks that others did. Instead, you took the shortcut with the steadfastness of a seasoned champion and leaped early towards the podium. Al-Hilal, or "The Leader" as its fans affectionately call it, represents a unique case in Asian sports. It is the club with the most continental and domestic titles, creating a massive numerical and psychological gap between it and its rivals, making catching up a near-impossible task.

Al-Hilal was not a fleeting project, nor a temporary phenomenon in the annals of competition. Rather, it was born great, established by a clear royal decree of sport since its founding by Sheikh Abdul Rahman bin Saeed – may God have mercy on him – based on planning, institutional work, and a respect for the meaning of professionalism. At a time when many clubs were run on knee-jerk reactions and fleeting fan emotions, Al-Hilal calmly built its system and established a culture of winning long before it became a trend in sporting circles.

Al-Hilal experienced true professionalism before anyone else, understanding that championships aren't won solely on the pitch, but begin in the offices through strategic, administrative, and financial planning to achieve desired goals. This administrative stability enabled them to make modern decisions that kept pace with innovation and development, making them a source of pride for Saudi football on the international stage and a model to be emulated in how to manage sports institutions.

Al-Hilal never sought championships to prove its existence; rather, it sought glory, and found glory pursuing it, drawing its presence and value from its brilliance. This is why some dislike it; because it disrupted comparisons and shattered the notion of a "cycle" where some wait for the giants to fall so they can rise. Al-Hilal made consistency the rule, not the exception, thus crushing the hopes of its rivals who wished to see its performance decline for extended periods.

They dislike him because he made winning a habit, the final an expected milestone, and the podium a recurring scene in his career. In an era where sports projects change rapidly, and ambitions shift with changing economic or administrative circumstances, Al-Hilal has remained steadfast in one philosophy: to always be at the top. This consistency is what instills a sense of helplessness in his rivals, as they realize that competing with Al-Hilal requires double the effort and years of building.

Al-Hilal isn't measured solely by the number of its titles, despite their abundance and variety across the league, the King's Cup, and the AFC Champions League. Rather, it's measured by its winning culture, its clear competitive identity, and its constant ability to redefine success at every stage. This is why they don't like you, Al-Hilal; because you are a mirror that exposes the difference, reminding everyone that the path to gold isn't paved with catchy slogans or media hype, but with hard work, perseverance, and a professional mindset.

Only the great are disputed, only the truly great have their successes fought against, and only Al-Hilal makes history, then grows accustomed to living it as if it were their everyday life. A final whisper: And if you glimpse Suhail in the southern sky... embrace the symbols of love.
