Al Fateh SC vs Al-Khaleej Club

Al Fateh edged out a tense 1-0 win over Al Khaleej at the Prince Abdullah bin Jalawi Stadium on Friday, with a crucial second-half goal from Saeed Baattia deciding an important Roshn Saudi League Round 29 clash. The first half was a tight, goalless affair, but Baattia — already booked for a foul in the 36th minute — made amends by slotting home the decisive strike on the hour mark (61'). A VAR review in the 72nd minute added extra tension, and Kostas Fortounis went agonisingly close for Al Khaleej in the 86th minute, but couldn't find an equalizer as seven minutes of added time failed to produce any further drama. The three points are a genuine lifeline for Al Fateh, who had been mired near the foot of the table. For Al Khaleej, it's another painful setback — leaving them firmly entrenched in the relegation fight as the season enters its final stretch.
