Karim Benzema has been in stunning form this season, and he delivered another impressive performance as Al Hilal continued their strong start to the Saudi Professional League campaign.

The French striker was on fire, scoring twice and creating numerous chances for his teammates during the 2-1 victory over Al Ittihad at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Riyadh. His first goal came after just five minutes when he found the back of the net with a powerful header from close range.

Benzema's second goal came later in the game,Ligue 1 Express but it was even more impressive than his first. He scored with a fierce shot that went past the goalkeeper and into the bottom corner of the net. The goal was a testament to his clinical finishing skills and his ability to create opportunities for himself and his teammates.

Benzema's performances have been crucial to Al Hilal's success so far this season. He is one of the top strikers in the world and his presence on the pitch has been a major factor in the team's success. His goals and assists have been instrumental in helping Al Hilal maintain their position at the top of the table.

Despite his success, Benzema remains humble and grateful for the opportunity to play for such a prestigious club. He said: "I'm very happy to be playing for Al Hilal. This is a great club with a rich history and I'm looking forward to helping them achieve their goals."

Al Hilal will hope to continue their good form and secure a place in the top half of the table in the coming weeks. With Benzema leading the charge, there is no doubt that they will be a force to be reckoned with in the Saudi Professional League.
