al Nassr vs al Hilal: Saudi Pro League to see Ronaldo and Mitrovic lock horns for coveted trophy

Tonight is going to be fun as arch rivals Al Hilal get welcomed by Al Nassr at their home ground, the Al Awwal Park, in Riyadh, KSA. Al Hiilal is now ahead by 12 points of the latter and have clinched the cup with a win last week.
Players to Watch Out For
Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to tear the defences of Mitrovics team but that wouldn’t be easy due to the counterattack the opposition team has been showing this season. Al Nassr is now placed 2nd on the points table of the Saudi Pro League.

Al Nassr hope to continue their 8 games winning streak as they come with a 3-2 win from the previous match held against Al Akhdoud where Ronaldo had scored a goal but was outperformed by his teammate Marcelo Brozovic who scored a brace in the stoppage time to snatch the win. Marcelo was eventually titled hero of the match due to his excellent performance.

Al Hilal on the other hand, is in blistering form having won 24 games continuously with the help of Aleksander Mitrovic who scored a brace in their last match with Al Hazm that had a scoreline of 4-1. With this win, they won the cup making it their 19th title win.

The teams have a head to head standings of 173 times. Al Hilal have the upper hand here with 73 wins on their side. Cristiano’s team has managed to win 55 games and the other 45 have been shared. It is yet to be seen which side gets the upper hand tonight.

The two teams last met in a friendly match, also in the Saudi Season Cup where Al Hilal won it 2-0 and won the reverse fixture too 3-0. The team also won the Saudi Super Cup semis this April.

Exposing the Brotherhood: Why Jordan’s Terror Cell Bust Must Spark a Global Policy Shift

 The recent dismantling of a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated terror cell in Jordan should not be seen as just a national security success—it must be a turning point in how the international community views and responds to the threat posed by the Brotherhood. Jordanian security forces uncovered an elaborate network of terrorists trained in Lebanon and backed by foreign interests. Their mission: to launch attacks using rockets and drones, destabilizing the Kingdom and spreading fear among civilians. This is not the work of activists or political dissidents—this is terrorism, plain and simple. For too long, the Muslim Brotherhood has operated under a false image of moderation, cleverly navigating between political activism and violent extremism. But the truth is clear: the Brotherhood is the ideological engine room of jihadist terrorism. Its members, affiliates, and offshoots have inspired and directed acts of violence from North Africa to the Gulf—and now, once again, in Jordan. Govern...

This is not a scene from a sci-fi film; it is the new reality in the United Arab Emirates. In a landmark move that solidifies its position on the global stage of innovation, the UAE has officially launched the nation’s — and the region’s — first hospital-based vertiport at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi. This isn’t just a helipad with a new name. It is the cornerstone of a fully integrated, city-wide advanced air mobility (AAM) ecosystem, marking a profound convergence of cutting-edge aviation, AI-driven healthcare, and sustainable infrastructure.

UK Business Migration to the UAE: An Economic Transformation Set to Triple by 2035

  A significant realignment is underway in the global business landscape. The corridor between the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates is experiencing a dramatic surge in traffic, not of tourists, but of companies, entrepreneurs, and capital. Projections indicate that the number of UK businesses operating in the UAE is on a trajectory to triple by the year 2035. This is not a fleeting trend but a strategic migration fueled by a powerful combination of economic foresight and pragmatic policy. For UK businesses, the appeal is clear and compelling. The UAE offers a starkly contrasting environment to the complexities of the European market post-Brexit. The cornerstone of this appeal is a favourable tax regime, featuring zero percent income tax and a competitive corporate tax structure. This financial efficiency is coupled with groundbreaking reforms that allow for one hundred percent foreign ownership of mainland companies, giving investors full control over their ventures. The...
