Al Ittihad
Al Ittihad secured a dramatic last-gasp victory against relegation-threatened El Geish in a match that seemed destined for a goalless draw. The contest was characterized by defensive resilience from both sides and a series of tactical substitutions, with eight players introduced across both teams in the second half as managers sought the breakthrough. Karim El Deeb proved to be the hero for Al Ittihad, converting a penalty in the 90th minute after Ghaith Al Madadha was penalized for handball. This crucial three points could prove vital for Al Ittihad's campaign, while El Geish's struggles continue as they remain rooted in 18th position, desperately needing points to climb away from the relegation zone.
