Hamdallah scored two more goals in the 66th and 80th minutes to make it 4-1 and in the process bagged a hattrick before Musa completed his double on the dot of the 90th minute.
Giuliano Victor had earlier scored the 5th goal for Al Nassr Riyadh in the 88th minute before Musa added the icing on the cake with the sixth goal of the encounter in the 90th minute.
“Good to start the year with a goal! We keep working hard till the end of the season. Well done mates,” Musa tweeted after the game via his handle @AhmedMusa718.
