In a thrilling encounter during the Saudi Pro League Round 13, Al Fayha managed to secure a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Damac FC last night. Despite the result, Al Fayha’s winless streak in the league extended to five games, leaving them rooted to the bottom of the table.
Damac FC took an early lead in the 6th minute when Georges-Kevin Nkoudou capitalized on a defensive lapse to slot the ball into the net. The visitors maintained their advantage through the first half, frustrating Al Fayha with a resolute defensive display.
The match came alive in the second half when Fashion Sakala produced a moment of brilliance to equalize for Al Fayha. The Zambian international displayed exceptional skill, dribbling past multiple defenders inside the 18-yard box before firing a clinical finish past the goalkeeper. His performance was a standout in an otherwise difficult season for Al Fayha.
However, Damac FC regained the lead through Kamano, who found the back of the net after a well-executed counterattack. Al Fayha refused to give up, and Alejandro Pozuelo’s calm finish late in the game ensured they salvaged a point.
Despite the spirited display, Al Fayha’s struggles continue as they sit in 17th place, firmly in the relegation zone. With no wins in their last five matches, the pressure is mounting on the team to turn their season around.
For Damac FC, the draw sees them remain in the middle of the table but missing an opportunity to climb higher.
Fashion Sakala’s solo goal was a highlight of the game, showcasing his quality and underlining his importance to Al Fayha’s fight for survival. As the league progresses, Al Fayha will hope to build on this performance and finally break their winless streak.
