Star who won title with Benfica makes history in Saudi Arabia | OneFootball

Andreia Faria recently won the Saudi league title while playing for Al Nassr. The Portuguese international, who left Benfica in the summer transfer window, has therefore ended her debut season in the best possible way by completing the treble with the Riyadh side.

The national title was confirmed last Thursday, March 26, when Al Nassr won away at Al Hilal. Andreia Faria’s team thrashed their rivals 4-1, with Al Hilal coached by Portuguese manager Luís Andrade and featuring former Benfica player Jéssica Silva in the squad.

As a result, Al Nassr secured the national championship with two matches still left to play. So far, Andreia Faria’s side, which won several titles with Benfica, has recorded 11 wins in the 12 matches played in the competition.

By lifting the Saudi League trophy, Andreia Faria completed the treble in her debut season, adding the league title to the Cup and Super Cup triumphs. It turned out to be a dream season for the Portuguese player, who never forgot Benfica.

"If I had stayed there, I wouldn’t have been unhappy, but Al Nassr was the next step in my career, a new adventure I wanted to have," said the attacking midfielder in a recent interview.
