Khorfakkan thought they had a chance to regain the lead from the penalty spot, but the decision was overturned after a VAR check. In stoppage time, Khorfakkan came inches away from a winner when the post denied them a dramatic late goal.
Khorfakkan now sit on 31 points in 7th place, while Al Bataeh move to 21 points in 12th, as both teams continue their mid-table battles in the final stretch of the season.
