Al-Ettifaq beat Abha 1-0 in the Saudi Professional League. Donovan Leon's goal in the 80th minute was the difference, and Abha ended the game without a shot on target and without forcing a save.
The game was tight and disrupted by four bookings, with Firas Al-Ghamdi and Ondrej Duda booked inside the opening half hour. Leon struck the decisive blow in the 80th minute. Abha had more total shots (9-8) but none on target, while Al-Ettifaq created two big chances to Abha's none.
Al-Ettifaq controlled possession, finishing with 61% to Abha's 39%, and 351 accurate passes to 203. They still only turned that dominance into one shot on target, the goal, and expected goals were 0.67 to 0.53. The away side edged the underlying numbers and took the points.
