Al-Jazira put an end to its negative results and achieved a very important victory over its guest Al-Nasr 3-1, yesterday, in the fourth round of the ADNOC Professional League, at a time when it succeeded in blocking its former player, the current Al-Nasr striker, Ali Mabkhout, from the goal and preventing him from scoring.
“Abu Dhabi Pride” entered the match with the best possible start, when he won a penalty kick after the referee returned to the video technology (VAR), which Nabil Fekir successfully invested, and put his team in the lead (4).
Al Jazira player Omar Traoré fired a ball from outside the box and it bounced off the post to Ramon Meres, who in turn completed it into the goal, but the VAR technique intervened and canceled the goal due to offside (18). The team continued the same offensive approach and strengthened its lead by adding the second goal from a wonderful sentence that Mohamed Elneny started with a “heel” pass to Nabil Fekir, who reflected a cross in the place where Bruno de Oliveira was located, and turned it into the net (37).
Oliveira followed up Al Jazira’s advantage by adding a third and his second goal, from a ball that was wrongly cleared by the Al-Nasr goalkeeper, reaching Omar Traoré, putting the Brazilian striker facing the goal (45+6).
Before the two teams entered the dressing room, the “savior” Adel Taarabt was able to reduce the difference by scoring a goal for Al-Nasr from a header, taking advantage of a corner, and turning it into the goal despite goalkeeper Ali Khasif’s attempts to clear the ball (45+9).
Al-Nasr tried to complete the second half as it had completed the previous one, and pressed hard to score, but it collided with the brilliant goalkeeper Ali Khasif, who blocked Abdullah Toure’s shot, which put him in a difficult place and turned it into a corner kick (58).
Adel Taarabt followed by wasting another opportunity from a ball he received while facing the goal, but he shot into the stands (71).
Substitute Ahmed Fawzi almost killed the match after he led a counterattack and penetrated until he entered the box and shot where the goalkeeper was (85).
Everyone waited for the moment when star Ali Mabkhout would score against his former team, after he received a ball that put him in the face of Al Jazira’s goalkeeper, but he shot the ball very strangely next to the post (88).
