The story didn't end there. Opta revealed that Al-Hilal scored more goals in this one match than they had managed across their previous 3 meetings with Al-Taawoun combined, turning the seventh-round night into one of the most thrilling attacking displays in the fixture's history.

Their scoring speed produced the most striking figure of all. As "Opta" pointed out, 6 of the last 7 times a team scored more than 5 goals inside the first 55 minutes of a Pro League match, that team was Al-Hilal.

This clash with Al-Taawoun was the latest episode in that exceptional run. Al-Hilal proved once again that they can settle a match early when the spaces and chances open up in front of goal.

Only one of those last 7 cases belonged to another side. Al-Nassr managed it against Al-Akhdoud in May 2025, which only underlines how regularly the Leader detonates this kind of attacking explosion in the Pro League.

Six goals against Al-Taawoun, then, were far more than a big seventh-round win. They came loaded with historic numbers, confirmation that Al-Hilal walked into the game with a ferocious attacking mindset and blew it open within minutes to record one of their biggest results against Al-Taawoun.
