Ruben Dias expressed his thoughts on Al-Hilal's performance in the USA, saying, "We're happy about our first-place position in the group, but that's all it means. It's a new competition now, and we're ready to start again from tomorrow."

He acknowledged that Al-Hilal has many skilled players and a strong team dynamic. "I've kept in touch with them, mainly through Ruben Neves and Joao Cancelo. I know they're a very good team, and we'll need to be at our best to win."

When asked about facing a Simone Inzaghi-coached team, Ruben Dias noted that Al-Hilal can play in different ways. "Inzaghi's teams are known for their strong defense, but they also have a lot of quality players who can score goals. This will make the game challenging for us."
