Al-Ahly youth maintain the “summit”

The Sharjah team and its guest, Shabab Al-Ahly, settled for a point after they tied negatively yesterday, during the summit of round 14 of the ADNOC Professional League, which was held at Sharjah Stadium, so that Shabab Al-Ahly raised its score to 29 points, maintaining the lead, a point behind runner-up Sharjah by 28 points. The match did not live up to the level of ambition, despite its importance, and was held in rainy weather.

The referee of the match, Ammar Al-Junaibi, canceled a penalty kick that he awarded in favor of Sharjah, after the assistant referee indicated to him that there was an offside case before calculating the penalty kick. Despite the impressive absences in its ranks, Shabab Al-Ahly was relatively the best, especially in the second half, and threatened Sharjah goalkeeper Darwish Muhammad with more than one opportunity, but it lacked focus and the final touch, while Sharjah did not provide a convincing technical return, although the team includes many names. Big players like Alcacer, Brazilian Caio and Greek defender Manolas.

Al-Ahly youth goalkeeper Majid Nasser saved his goal from the most dangerous opportunity for Sharjah from a quick attack led by Alcacer and Caio in the 87th minute. Sharjah coach Cosmin pushed Alcacer and Othman Camara to the front line, while Al-Ahly youth relied on Yahya Al-Ghassani, Yuri Cesar and Doumbia in the front line.

The two teams played the match in light of impressive absences, as Sharjah goalkeeper Adel Al Hosani was absent after being sent off in the last Al-Nasr match, as well as Majed Hassan and Pjanic, while Al-Ahly youth was absent from its most prominent elements such as Argentine Kartabia, Salmin Khamis and Jesus.
