Al Ahli maintain UAE League dominance

The Knights edge Al Nasr in the final game to earn a fifth national title in a match overshadowed by Llorenç’s knee injury.

No-one seems able to dethrone Dubai side Al Ahli Club in the world of UAE beach soccer after they claimed another domestic championship this weekend. 

 

The Red Knights clinched their fifth consecutive National League Crown on Saturday, following a narrow 10-8 win over Al Nasr.

Three goals by Portuguese ace Jordan, together with Kamal’s double, and further contributions from Madjer, Bruno Novo, Hamada and Abbas Zizo, plus an own goal, got things under control for the men in red.

Their dominance continued with the individual awards also as Rashed was named the league’s Leading Goalscorer.

Team-mate Bahri was Best Goalkeeper and Jordan Santos was crowned Best International Player of the competition.

However, an injury suffered by Spain star Llorenç of Al Nasr overshadowed the weekend’s action as the striker hurt his knee.

Subsequent tests diagnosed a meniscal tear – an injury that looks set to sideline him for a number of weeks.
