A negative draw was held against the first al-khaleej football team and al-shabab counterpart in the 22nd round of the Saudi Roshen League at the Prince Mohammed bin Fahad Stadium in Dammam on Saturday.
The teams reiterated the outcome of the 2015 season, when faced with the 3 round of the Roshen League and a draw of 0.
Their Pro League draw, which was inaugurated in the summer of 2008, also increased to 3 overall, all but one negative, with a result of 1.
During the next 10 clashes between them, the goals were present for either or both of the parties, indicating a poor scoring score during those games.
The al-khaleej wished itself the first victory of the year, with its final victory going back to December 21 last year, when Al Faiha exceeded 3 in the 18 round. Thereafter, he played 4 games, all in “Roshin”, two of which were lost, by Ahly 01 and Agreement 02, and in their 1st appearance tied with firmness and 0-0 to youth.
al-shabab also failed to confirm their victories when they visited the al-khaleej at their home stadium, with the Capitalist team winning three out of four visits, in the Professional League, the last with a score of 3.2 for the second round of last season.
The al-khaleej will host its counterpart Al Fatah on Saturday, while Al Fayha will meet on Thursday, March 7, in the 23rd round.
The 67th minute saw the player demanded to walk off the field because of his inability to complete the game amid attempts by the medical system to deal with muscle injury.
The 24-year-old left-back came out holding the back muscle of his left foot.
Portuguese Technical Director Vitor Pereira continues to reorganize the al-shabab ranks during the current period to take advantage of the second half of the season and advance towards the positions offered after a period of negative results and declining performance.
The al-shabab Administration has also been keen to strengthen the first team in the past winter transfers with special deals, including Croatian international Ivan Rakitic.
