The fifth round of the ADNOC Professional League, which concluded the day before yesterday, confirmed the readiness of Sharjah and Al Jazeera to compete for the championship title after a wonderful exceptional summit that brought the two teams together amid a large audience, and ended in a positive tie, in a match that witnessed six wonderful goals, and despite the progress of Al Jazeera, Sharjah returned strongly to equalize , The two teams refuse to lose and leave the decision to the next rounds.

After five rounds, the Romanian coach Kuzmin's battalion proved its ability to return to the match at any time after being late. The conditions of the match at the top of the island with the tools it has.

On the other hand, Al Jazeera is living a wonderful period with the brilliance and glow of the historical scorer Ali Mabkhout, who reached nine goals in five matches, outperforming all foreign players in our league, to give the team its offensive position, which is what the "Pride of Abu Dhabi" suffered last season, and was the reason for losing the title The league, which he achieved last season, also thanks to the brilliance of Mabkhout.

After a long period of not appearing in the seniors box, Al-Wasl team appeared in the standings for the first time, bypassing Al-Jazira team by goal difference, and only two points away from the leaders Sharjah and outperforming Al-Ain. The talent is Amouri and his contract, and it remains only to face the leading teams, which is the real test for Al-Wasl to know its true ability in the struggle for the league title, and the team needs some work in order to compete for the title, especially in the wings and defense.

On the other hand, Al-Nassr suffers in a new season after losing to Al-Wahda by four, so that the team will live a new crisis with its fans thirsting to compete for the league title. His comeback, which was also the case last season, after a faltering start.

The competition in the middle of the table expanded with Ajman achieving its second victory, losing Al-Bataeh, and the Kalba Union tied with Al-Ahly youth, who became a bewildering team with its potential, but it is unable to prove itself in the top teams, and it seems that this situation will remain this season after losing four additional points His score stopped at only seven points, and he lost eight points in five rounds.

For his part, the Baniyas team became in real danger after stopping at the fourth point and 12th place in the standings table, and the closest teams to the relegation centers, and strangely enough, the team succeeded in stopping Al Jazeera, but did not succeed in helping itself in the rest of the matches, and lost the Ajman match and remained in the danger centers And he is experiencing a difficult season again after a long period in which he was among the title-fighting clubs, the closest of which was the season before last, when he finished the tournament in second place.

Technical analyst Khaled Obaid confirmed that the fifth round demonstrated the true desire of Al Jazeera and Sharjah to win the league title, and they are the two teams that are most ready to compete with the elements, capabilities and technical cadres that qualify them for this, especially after the top of the fifth round.

Khaled Obaid told "Emirates Today": "Sharjah and Al Jazeera have all offensive and defensive solutions to deal with matches, especially offensive solutions, but some defensive errors in the two teams remain, which may affect the two teams in some matches, and appeared in the Sharjah team in the Ajman and Al Jazeera matches. ».

He added: “I am still in my opinion that Al-Wasl needs support in some lines in order to think about competing for the league title, being in the runner-up position with great public support, and repeating victories guaranteeing the team’s presence in the seniors box at the very least. As for victory, there is nothing new to mention. He continued to be unable to deal with the course of the match, in addition to naive individual errors.”
