Kalba achieved its first victory this season by defeating Khor Fakkan with two unanswered goals, yesterday, in the matches of the fourth round of the ADNOC Professional League. The match did not witness many attacks throughout the two halves, but it was characterized by danger, as Iranian Mahdi Qaidi missed the first chance of the match from one-on-one with the goal, as Khor Fakkan goalkeeper Ahmed Al Hosani cleared the ball with his foot (19).
The most dangerous opportunity of the match occurred when a ball arrived on a golden platter to the Khor Fakkan player Laurenci, who was a few steps away from the goal, and he shot it against the crossbar before bouncing back to Ayman Rashouk, who nodded it with his head over the crossbar (29).
Iranian player Mehdi Qaidi scored the first goal in the 43rd minute, with a sudden low shot from the outskirts of the box that landed in the net.
In the second half, the Khor Fakkan players rushed towards the Kalba goal in an attempt to equalize, but most of the attempts were destroyed by the “clustered” defense on the part of the guests, who clearly relied on quick counter-attacks to exploit the speed of Jovic and Mehdi Qaidi on the flanks, which exhausted the Khor Fakkan defense.
Iranian Shahriar Moganlou increased the “Tigers’ lead” by scoring the second goal with an exemplary header, taking advantage of a cross ball sent by Daniel Bessa, rising to it before the defenders and dunking it into the goal (74).
