Kuala Lumpur: Al Hilal will go into the second leg of the 2017 AFC Champions League final against Urawa Red Diamonds with their title hopes still alive, after Omar Khrbin's equaliser in the first leg cancelled out Rafael Silva's strike for the Japanese side.
Khrbin's tenth goal of the tournament also made him the tenth player to score for Al Hilal in the final of a continental tournament.
In the run-up to Saturday's decisive clash in Saitama, we look at the nine other players who have netted for the Saudi giants when the stakes were at their highest.
1991 Asian Club Championship
Al Hilal's shining record of success in Asia began with their first triumph in the 1991 Asian Club Championship.
After two disappointing runners-up finishes in 1986 and 1987, the Riyadh-based side finally got their hands on the title courtesy of a penalty shootout win over the Islamic Republic of Iran's Esteghlal in the final after a 1-1 draw in regulation time.
The lone goalscorer for Al Hilal on this occasion was defender Hussain Al Habashi, who rescued them after Esteghlal had taken the lead through Amir Hashemi. The full-back entered the history books with his strike and remains a legendary name among the fans of Al Hilal.
