Oliver, who was a special guest for the top clash, was kept busy throughout the match at Al-Hilal Stadium.

He awarded two penalties to the home side, both of which were successfully converted by former Manchester United striker Odion Ighalo. Oliver also initially awarded a penalty to Al Nassr, but after a VAR review, reversed his decision.
