Kuwait - Al-Thaqaf Club defeated Al-Shabab 3-1 on Friday in the second match of the eighth round of the Zain Premier League. At Al-Shabab Stadium, the home side began cautiously, retreating into their own half, while Al-Thaqaf took the initiative in attack and created the more dangerous chances. Al-Shabab, meanwhile, played conservatively, relying on counterattacks. Michel Angelo scored the opening goal for Al-Shabab in the 25th minute.
In the second half, Al-Thaqaf pressed forward to level the score, with Saud Qasim equalizing in the 60th minute. Ahmed Shibab added a second goal in the 67th minute, and Abdulrahman Al-Rashidi sealed the victory with a third goal in the 96th minute.
With this win, Al-Thaqaf moved to six points, climbing to 10th place in the Zain League standings, while Al-Shabab remained eighth with eight points.
The eighth round resumes tomorrow, Saturday, with two matches: Al-Arabi versus Al-Nasr at Sabah Al-Salem Stadium, and Al-Jahra versus Al-Qadsia at Mubarak Al-Kabeer Stadium. (End) M.Y.M. / T.A.B.
