Al Shabab emerged victorious over Al-Fateh with a 3-1 scoreline in a Pro League match played at Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi Sports City Stadium.
Al Shabab controlled the game, dominating possession (60%) and creating numerous chances. They had a significant edge in shots (16 to 5) and shots on goal (9 to 1), showcasing their attacking prowess. Al-Fateh, despite their valiant efforts, struggled to breach the Shabab defense.
The turning point of the match came in the second half. Two quick goals by Turki Al-Ammar and Fábio Martins sealed the victory for Shabab. The first goal, coming in the 78th minute, sparked the crucial momentum shift. Even though Al-Fateh scored a penalty goal in the first half, the second-half performance of Al Shabab was undeniable.
Al Shabab's aggressive approach and tactical substitutions in the second half contributed significantly to the outcome. Al-Fateh showed determination early on but ultimately their defensive line struggled to contain the skillful Shabab attack. A red card to Hassan Al-Habib in the 85th minute was a significant blow for Al-Fateh, highlighting the crucial moments of the match.
A memorable match indeed.
