In this Premier League encounter, East Riffa SCC edged out Al Ahli Manama with a 1-0 victory, thanks to an early second-half goal. The match-winning goal was scored shortly after the break, precisely at 00:49:18, reflecting East Riffa's quick start to the second half. This goal was the game's standout moment, showcasing East Riffa's ability to capitalize on game momentum immediately after returning to the pitch.

East Riffa's defensive discipline contributed significantly to their victory despite their three yellow cards. Efficient in maintaining defensive shape, they successfully utilized the offside trap, catching the opposition offside three times compared to none by Al Ahli Manama. This effective offside strategy proved crucial in stifling Al Ahli's attacking attempts.

Al Ahli Manama's performance highlighted a struggle to penetrate East Riffa’s defense, as mirrored in their fewer corner kicks and offsides.
