HONOURS EVEN IN AMMAN DERBY
Feb 09, 2018
Wehdat and Faisali shared the spoils in an action-packed Amman derby played at King Abdullah stadium.
Polish striker Lucas Gikiewicz put Faisali ahead in the 12th minute, before Abdullah Deeb leveled from the penalty spot just five minutes later.
Faisali restored their lead through Senegalese player Dominick in the 53th minute, but Saeed Murjan made it 2-2 in the 70th minute. Wehdat could have won it but Yazan Thalji missed a late penalty.
The point was enough to keep Wehdat on top of the league, eight points clear of fourth placed Faisali. In the day’s other game, Shabab Ordon beat That Rass 2-0 at the Prince Feisal Stadium in Karak.
