Al Taawon vs Al Fateh SC

Al Taawon and Al Fateh shared a goalless draw in Buraidah, a result that flattered the visitors given how the game unfolded. The hosts dominated territory and chances throughout but simply couldn't find a breakthrough, leaving both benches frustrated by full time. The game's defining moment came just after the hour when Younes El Bahraoui was shown a second yellow card and sent off for Al Taawon, forcing the hosts to play out the rest of the match a man light. Al Fateh picked up bookings of their own through Faisal Al Abdulwahed (75') and Zaydou Youssouf (86'), while Aschraf El Mahdioui was cautioned late for the hosts. Al Fateh pushed hard in the closing stages, with Lukas Haraslin forcing a couple of late chances, but neither side could land the decisive blow. For Al Taawon, the stalemate extends a winless run and continues a troubling home scoring drought. Al Fateh, meanwhile, stretch their unbeaten streak to three straight draws, a solid if unspectacular return on the road.
