Al-Khaleej Club vs Al-Ahli

Al Ahli made it five wins in a row with a dominant 4-1 away victory at Al Khaleej's Prince Mohamed bin Fahd Stadium, with Matheus Gonçalves' composed strike from the edge of the box the highlight of a one-sided evening. Rayan Hamed broke the deadlock on 8 minutes — the goal surviving a VAR check — before Giorgos Masouras leveled for the hosts on 17. Firas Al-Buraikan restored Al Ahli's lead on 34 with a sharp left-footed finish after Abu Shamat's clever no-look pass. Ali Al-Salem's unfortunate own goal on 50 minutes made it 3-1, and Gonçalves wrapped things up on 78. Joshua King's late header was the best Al Khaleej could muster, but Edouard Mendy was equal to it. The result seals Al Ahli's third-place finish in style, with their attack clicking at just the right time. For Al Khaleej, a fourth consecutive defeat is a sobering end to what was a difficult final stretch of the season.
