The match was part of the sixth round of the Saudi Roshen Professional League. Striker Firas Al-Buraikan scored the only goal in the 34th minute after a quick move inside the penalty area. The win gave Al-Ahli three points and ended a run of mixed results. Both sides pushed forward, but the referee ruled out two goals for offside—one by Al-Ahli’s Franck Kessie in the 49th minute and one by Al-Najma’s Nasser Al-Halil in the 44th minute, after video review. Al-Ahli held 59 percent of the ball and had 14 shots on goal, while Al-Najma managed four. Fouls totaled 17 against Al-Ahli and 10 against the home side. Al-Ahli now has twelve points and moves up the table. Al-Najma stays at the bottom with no points after six matches. [/QUOTE]
