Al Jazira recovered from two goals down to beat Muharraq 4–2 in the Asian Champions League Two. Abdulwahab Al-Malood scored in the third and 33rd minutes, giving the Bahraini side a two-goal advantage at half-time before the contest changed direction after the interval.
Malcom began the recovery with a 52nd-minute penalty and equalised in the 56th. Bruno put Al Jazira ahead after 68 minutes, and Malcom completed his hat-trick in the 72nd. The Emirati team consequently scored four times within a twenty-minute span on the published goal clock.
ESPN lists seven Al Jazira shots on target against four for Muharraq, from overall attempt totals of 13 and nine respectively. The main feature is the speed of the second-half reversal: Malcom supplied the first and final steps, while Al-Malood’s earlier double explains how much ground had to be recovered. The final margin should not obscure that initial two-goal deficit.
