Super Falcons star Asisat Oshoala has continued her blistering start to life in the Saudi Women’s Premier League, grabbing a goal and an assist to inspire Al-Hilal to a commanding 3-0 victory over Neom SC on Friday evening.

Oshoala once again proved her quality, setting up Al Bandari Mobarak’s opener in the 14th minute before sealing the win herself with a well-taken strike in the 85th minute, Footballrover reports.

Asisat Oshoala’s Goal and Assist Propel Al-Hilal’s Winning Streak

Midfield star Kheira Hamraoui had earlier doubled the lead in the 67th minute of the encounter at the Inaya Medical Colleges Stadium.

The 30-year-old Nigerian has now been directly involved in 5 goals (3 goals and 2 assists) in just 3 matches for the Saudi giants since her high-profile move from Bay FC in NWSL this summer.

Oshoala’s influence was on full display in Riyadh as she linked up superbly with her teammates.

Her clever pass for Mobarak’s opener set the tone for the match, while her late strike — coolly finished after a precise assist from Mobarak — capped a dominant performance by the Blue Waves.

This latest win means Al-Hilal have now secured three consecutive victories, with Oshoala emerging as the focal point of their attack.

Her experience, predatory instincts, and leadership are already paying dividends as the club chases domestic glory.

Raising the Saudi Women’s Premier League Profile

Having won multiple league titles and the UEFA Women’s Champions League with Barcelona, Oshoala’s arrival in the Saudi Women’s Premier League has raised the competition’s profile significantly.

Her current form suggests she’s far from done making headlines.

Recall that the Super Falcons star began her journey in the Saudi Women’s Premier League in spectacular fashion, delivering a decisive goal that inspired Al-Hilal to a commanding victory over Al Qadsiah Women.

She followed that up with another standout display, scoring from the spot and providing an assist in Al-Hilal’s second win of the season — a thrilling triumph over Al-Ahli at the Prince Sultan Bin Fahd Stadium.

Next up for Oshoala and her teammates is a clash against Al-Ittihad, where she will go head-to-head with her fellow Super Falcons stars.
