A draw with the taste of defeat for the "leader" in front of Arabism... and the difference of four points worries the eye
Al-Ain team fell to a 1-1 draw against its guest Al-Orouba in the confrontation that brought the two sides together this evening in the 18th round of the ADNOC Professional Football League.
The owners of the land found themselves late in the result after Ali Madin scored the advance goal for his team Al-Orouba in the 38th minute.
Al-Zaeem waited until the 87th minute to score the equalizer through his Brazilian player Rafael.
A draw is considered defeat, especially since the difference between Al Ain leaders and Al Wahda runners-up reduced to only four points, after Al Wahda won today against Shabab Al Ahly 3-1.
Al-Ain raised its score to 43, retaining the top spot, compared to 39 for Al-Wahda, while Al-Uruba added the 10th point.
In the next round, Al Ain will meet Al Wahda team in the "Abu Dhabi Derby" in a confrontation that is expected to define the features of the league champion.
