Since Cron joined Ainas a year and a half ago, he has played 70 games and scored 64 goals, but he still hasn't tasted the official tournament title. On the other hand, last August, another star, Ny, switched from Paris Saint-Germain to Hilal. In all competitions, he played only 5 games, scored 1 goal and assisted 3 times, but he could accompany his team to become the league, super king and king of this season. The "Triple Crown" is a stark contrast.
Nima joined Hilal with an annual salary of 150 million euros (about HK$1.27 billion), only 200 million euros (about HK$1.7 billion) more than Cronjen's annual salary, but he is a 32-year-old Brazilian international. The "job" has been much easier since last October, when the "Samba Corps" has been absent for rest after being injured playing in the world's out-of-competition matches.
Nima turned into a Hilal 'mascot' and became more courageous in the absence of strikers in the team. First of all, they beat Ittihad 4-1 in the final of the Super Cup in April, and followed the league with a 14-point advantage, defeating second-place Ainas to win the title. In addition, they won the King's Cup final to win the Ainas 'Triple Crown' domination.
Nima has only played five times for Hilal, but has only been present at the trophy ceremony on three occasions, making him a very efficient 'winner'.
