"Your Excellencies" owe this victory to the Syrian striker Omar Khribin, who scored the only goal of the match from a penalty kick (71).

Al-Wahda, who raised its score to the seventh point, benefited from the numerical shortage in Al Rayyan's ranks after the expulsion of two of its players, according to a case of dismissal in each half.

The coach of the unit, Dutch Ten Cat, put many question marks about the squad that he pushed against Al Rayyan, by keeping the two stars Ismail Matar and Omar Khribin on the bench, in a match that was in dire need of victory to continue the competition to reserve the qualifying ticket for the round of 16.

And it was clear at the beginning of the first half that the two teams were exaggerating in not accepting any goal, so caution dominated the atmosphere of the match, and the game was confined to the midfield without any threat to the two goals.

In the midst of the monotony prevailing in the course, the 24th minute witnessed the first opportunity achieved by Al-Wehda to score from a left shot by Slovenian Matavz, which Al Rayyan's goalkeeper managed to clear it into a corner kick, which was executed without being taken advantage of.

Al-Wahda entered the second half with a clear offensive tendency, reinforced by substitute Omar Khribin, who replaced defender Muhammad Al-Minhali, with a shot that passed along the list (48).

The descent of Ismail Matar made a milestone in Al-Wehda's performance, who played a ball in size at Faris Juma’s head. Al Rayyan’s professional Frank Com did not find a way but to block him so that Annabi got a penalty kick, and the Al Rayyan player is excluded from the match for obtaining the second yellow card.

Omar Khribin advanced to the penalty kick, which he successfully placed to the left of the goalkeeper, scoring the winning goal for the unit.

And before the end of the match, Ismail Matar reacted strongly to Al Rayyan defender Deem Traore after being obstructed, to obtain the red card and miss Al-Wehda squad in the next Iranian Persepolis match.

• Samah’s participation in the second half made the difference in the unit’s performance.
