Two first-half goals from Sebastian Tagliabue and Tahnoon Alzaabi were the difference for Al Wahda to snatch a 2-0 away win over Ittihad Kalba in matchweek 15 of the ADNOC Pro League on Sunday.

Three minutes before the two teams headed to the dressing rooms for the break, Tahnoon Alzaabi sealed the victory for his side's lead when he was teed up by Sebastian Tagliabue inside the box; as he kept his composure and drilled the ball into the back of the net.

 


Ittihad Kalba have had problems with their penalty kick takers after Filip Kiss missed two penalties in two minutes during the second half.

 

 

The victory guided Al Wahda to jump to the third spot with 30 points, while Ittihad Kalba remain eighth with 21 points.
