Al-Marsad Sports: Turki Al-Sheikh, head of the Entertainment Authority, responded to the tweet of Adib Al-Omari, an official in the former Saudi Billiards Federation, regarding the celebration of Al-Hilal Club following achieving the AFC Champions League and not being the same following the team qualified.
Al-Omari wrote through his official Twitter account: Al-Hilal won the Asian Championship, the world was in flames, schools were disrupted, business headquarters became display screens, and the Boulevard shook with joy until midnight, and it was just a club, and all this was under the pretext of patriotism. No reaction, but we felt that we did not qualify.
In turn, Al-Omari responded and wrote: First, thank you, Your Excellency, for following up on everything related to the country. For an important and major global event with celebrations equivalent to the largest event in the world.
I know you live on another planet or not with us?! To degrade we got into lying and omission! Wasn’t there a big party at Al-Jawhara Stadium?! Wasn’t everyone allowed to enter for free on the Boulevard?! The Boulevard’s screens and lanes are all patriotic, and more than 200,000 people attended!! Dad, what is meant by your tweet, is it incitement?!

Where is the clarity, where is the transparency?! And celebrations pervaded all over the place! What is following the biggest stadium filled with 4 artists and fans and the Boulevard 200 thousand revelers!!! I say, Adeeb, let you have a share of your name!
