Al Fayha secured a narrow victory against Al-Tai in a close-fought Saudi Pro League encounter today at King Salman Sport City Stadium. The only goal of the game came in the second half, with Sultan Mandash finding the net in the 47th minute thanks to a brilliant assist from Q. Al-Khalaf.
The first half was a cagey affair, with both teams struggling to create clear-cut chances. Al Feiha came close on a couple of occasions, but Al-Tai’s defense held firm.
The deadlock was finally broken shortly after the break. Q. Al-Khalaf played a perfectly weighted pass through the Al-Tai defense, finding Mandash who made no mistake with his finish. Al-Tai pushed for an equalizer in the remaining minutes, but Al Fayha’s defense stood strong to secure all three points.
This win is a big boost for Al Fayha’s hopes of finishing in the top half of the table. Al-Tai, on the other hand, will be disappointed to have lost after a promising first-half performance.
