Al-Arabi Football Club beat Umm Salal in yesterday’s friendly by one goal to nothing; the goal was scored by Ahmed Khalfan on the 40^th minute of the second half.

The match was played at a slow pace with both teams cancelling each other out for large periods of the game.

Ahmed Khalfan was able to score the match’s only goal, after receiving an excellent cross from Farid Al-Mass to end the match in the Dream Teams favour.

Al-Arabi played the match with the absence of many players due to their participation with the national teams. Boualem Khoukhi and Abdel Aziz Hatem are currently with the Qatar National A Team whilst Ahmed Fathi is with Qatar National Olympic Team.  Sayed Ashkan has left Qatar to join up with his teammates in Iran as they take on South Korea.

Al-Arabi is scheduled  to play a second friendly game on 30 November before playing against Al Ahli in round 11 of the Qatar Stars League.
