Match Report
Al Fayha turned on the style in Round 31 of the Saudi Pro League, dismantling Al Riyadh 4-2 at Al Majamma'a Sports City Stadium with the game effectively over before halftime.
Mokhtar Al-Rashidi got things rolling in the 21st minute, and Fashion Sakala made it 2-0 just two minutes later with a thunderous strike past keeper Milan Burian. Al Riyadh mounted a brief fightback when Yuan Barrett headed one back in the 67th, but Yassine Benzema almost immediately restored the two-goal cushion. Mamadou Sella pulled another back in the 90th to offer false hope, before Silver Mbousi—teed up by Rakan Al-Kaabi's precise cross—sealed it in the 90+2 to close the door.
The result lifts Al Fayha to ninth place with 38 points, firmly in safe mid-table territory. Al Riyadh, though, remain rooted in 16th on just 23 points, deep in the relegation zone with their top-flight survival hanging by a thread.
