Le doublé de Lázaro assure la victoire à domicile pour Al-Fayha

Al-Fayha came from behind to beat Abha 3-2 in an entertaining Saudi Pro League encounter on 28 August. Lázaro proved the difference for the hosts, netting in the 32nd minute before doubling his tally in the 56th to steer Al-Fayha toward victory.

Abha's Karim A. Shamrani received a yellow card in the 38th minute as tensions rose in the first half. The visitors continued to pose problems, and further cautions for J. Gaari and A. Diallo in the 45th and 68th minutes reflected a combative contest throughout.

Al-Fayha's control in possession ultimately proved decisive. Despite Abha's resistance and ability to score twice, the home side's attacking thrust could not be matched. The visitors found the net but lacked the cutting edge required to secure anything from the trip, leaving with nothing to show for their efforts.

The final whistle confirmed Al-Fayha 3-2 Abha, a victory built on Lázaro's clinical finishing before Abha's A. Diallo was cautioned in the 68th minute.
