Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 43498, member: 636"] Al-Hilal faces major problems before playing Real Madrid on Wednesday. The Saudi team lost striker Aleksandar Mitrovic due to injury concerns. Local newspaper Al-Riyadiyah reported that Mitrovic missed training sessions recently. The Serbian forward will not play against the Spanish champions during their Club World Cup match. Team officials confirmed Mitrovic cannot participate because of his physical condition. Al-Hilal coaches must find new attacking options without their star player. Mitrovic scores many goals for the Saudi club throughout regular seasons. His absence creates difficulties for Al-Hilal's game plan against Real Madrid. The team needs other forwards to step up during this important tournament match. Al-Hilal supporters hope their remaining players can compete well despite losing Mitrovic. [/QUOTE]
