Al-Fayha and Al Khaleej Saihat draw in a dull encounter
Al-Fayha and Al Khaleej Saihat drew 0-0 in a match that took place this Friday at the Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium in Dammam, corresponding to the fourth round of the Saudi Pro League.
The game was marked by the lack of goal-scoring opportunities. Al-Fayha dominated possession (55% compared to Al Khaleej Saihat’s 45%), but failed to create danger in the opponent’s box. Al Khaleej Saihat tried to find space on the counter-attack, but they also found themselves facing a well-organized Al-Fayha defense.
The first half of the match was marked by two yellow cards: one for R. Lopez of Al-Fayha in the 22nd minute and another for K. Al Samiri of Al Khaleej Saihat in the 45th minute.
In the second half, both teams made several changes looking for a change of pace. Al Khaleej Saihat substituted M. Hamzi, S. Aboulshamat, A. Al Fahad, and A. Al Salem, while Al-Fayha only replaced N. Al Harthi and R. Al Kaabi.
The final minutes of the match were marked by tension and frustration from both teams. Al-Fayha received two more yellow cards, one for F. Abdi in the 85th minute and another for O. Shukurov in the 90th minute.
Despite the lack of goals, the game was played with intensity and fair play. The final result of 0-0 leaves both teams with 5 points in the league table.
