Al-Wahda achieved a valuable victory over Sharjah with two goals versus a goal in the confrontation that they gathered yesterday, at the Sharjah Stadium in the 12th round of the Arab Gulf League, and inflicted the second loss to the league title holder, and gave a precious gift to Al-Ahly youth who leads the standings by two points, before facing Al Ain today at the end of the round And Al-Wahda raised its balance to point 17, while Sharjah's balance was frozen at 24 points, and it needed to regain its balance in order to stay on its chances of competing for the title.
With this victory, Al-Wahda sent several messages in more direction, including his return to the path of victories after a series of defeats, and the debt repayment to Sharjah, which he won back and forth last season.
The defensive mistakes cost Sharjah a lot, as it seemed confused in the first half next to the absence of the scorer and the Brazilian playmaker Igor Cornado, who recently underwent surgery, after suffering a cut in the connective muscle.
Al-Wahda finished the first half, ahead of two goals without a response scored by Abdullah Al-Karbi «21», Sharjah defender Abdullah Ghanem by mistake in his net «27», and Sharjah narrowed the difference with a goal scored by Ryan Mendes from penalty kick «69».
The crowd presence in the match reached 3857 fans.
Al-Wahda initiated the attack, led by Argentine player Sebastian Tigali, and his player, Yahya Al-Ghassani, fired a strong ball that passed next to the goalkeeper's goal, Adel Al-Hosni, and Al-Qaim repulsed a strong ball to the unit, Mohammed Barghash fired in the fourth minute of a quick attack, and Sharjah responded with a similar attack, but it missed the last touch.
The Uzbek-Sharjah player Shukurov missed a valuable opportunity when he hit a ball that passed near Al-Wahda goalkeeper Rashid Ali «11», and the owners of the land pressed the Al-Wahda front in an attempt to create gaps in Al-Annabi’s defense and kidnapped the first goal in the match.
The unit surprised the owners of the land with a beautiful goal through Abdullah Al-Karbi «21», with a header that was not seen by Sharjah goalkeeper Adel Al-Hosni except when he embraced his nets.
It seemed the best and most widespread unit on the field and gave the goal a great moral boost to the team players to take the lead in the match, and Yahya Al Ghassani wasted an irreplaceable opportunity while facing the goal «25».
The unit succeeded after just six minutes of its first goal in scoring the second goal with friendly fire, when Sharjah defender Abdullah Ghanem completed the ball in his own net (27) in a cross pass by Yahya Al Ghassani.
Sharjah tried to restore balance and reduce the difference, and Ryan Mendez squandered the opportunity of a certain goal, when he hit a powerful ball that passed near the 38 goal.
The Sharjah coach sought to save the situation and made a change in the team's ranks, as it pushed the players at the beginning of the first half with Tariq Al-Khadim and Rafael Dosantos.
Unity could have increased its yield targets, but it did not improve opportunities.
Although he was two goals behind without a reply, Sharjah seemed the best in the last part of the match and threatened Al-Wahda goal more than once.
The match referee, Muhammad Obaid Khadim, awarded a penalty kick to Sharjah, after his player, Tariq Al Khadim, was blocked, and Ryan Mendes «69» scored, scoring the first goal for his team.
