May 14 (Reuters) - Al Hilal have fined midfielder Salem Al Dawsari a month's salary for attempting to head-butt the referee at the end of their Riyadh derby against Saudi champions Al Nassr on Sunday.
"The Club's Football Administration has decided to implement the Internal Regulations of the team against the player by deduction from his salary," a club official told Reuters on Thursday.
No financial details were revealed but Al Dawsari could face further punishment from Saudi Professional League organisers following the ugly incident at the end of the tie which saw Al Nassr retain the title following a 1-0 win at their rivals.
