Al Wasl snatch late draw against Fujairah

Fabio Lima scored late to hand Al Wasl a 1-1 draw against Fujairah at Fujairah Stadium in matchweek 20 of the Arabian Gulf League on Thursday.

 

Fujairah's Tunisian forward Mohamed Firas Firas Ben Larbi tapped home from close range to hand the hosts a 1-0 lead in the 39th minute.

 

Al Wasl were forced to continue the game with 10 men when defender Hueglo Neris was sent off in the 69th minute, as the home side were left with an uphill task. 

 

However, Al Wasl made a late comeback as Fabio Lima converted from the spot to level the scoreline in the third minute of injury time. Fujairah's substitute Ali Eid was sent off deep into injury time for a second booking.

 

Al Wasl extended their unbeaten streak against Fujairah to eight games (6 wins - two draws). The guests raised their tally to 30 points and temporarily occupy seventh place, while Fujairah failed to capitalize on Ajman's draw earlier on Thursday as they remained in 13th place on 11 points.
