Al Kharaitiyat 1-1 Al Khor
Al Kharaitiyat’s clash with Al Khor didn’t set the world on fire however one of the goals of the round was scored in this match. Madson, who received the man of the match award, was integral to the goal. Madison broke down the right wing and cut into the box as he delivered a loss cross for Cesar who ran to the near post, and fooled his marker who thought that a shot was imminent. Instead the Cesar let the ball run across him and then nonchalantly back heeled the ball into the goal.
 
This is the 4^th time this season that the diminutive forward has gotten the award.
