In a tightly contested Second Division League match, Al Sailiya secured a 2-1 victory over Al Markhiya SC, thanks to their effective use of set pieces and solid teamwork, particularly in the second half. Both teams started aggressively, as reflected in the early yellow cards, with Al Markhiya receiving theirs just under two minutes into the match. Despite Al Markhiya's early lead early in the second half, scored at 47 minutes, Al Sailiya showed resilience, capitalizing on their opportunities to turn the game around.

Statistical data indicates that Al Sailiya's greater frequency in corner kicks (6 compared to Al Markhiya's 4) played a pivotal role in maintaining offensive pressure. These corners, coupled with disciplined team play, allowed them to create more goal-scoring opportunities, which were eventually converted into goals at 76 and 91 minutes. The effective execution from set pieces and the ability to capitalize on critical chances demonstrated their superior adaptation during crucial phases of the match.

The match had an intense edge, given the number of yellow cards handed out, 3 to Al Sailiya and 1 to Al Markhiya, demonstrating the fierce contest for territorial dominance. Al Sailiya managed to control their aggression effectively as this did not result in any red cards or reduced players, maintaining their numerical strength on the field. This control over discipline and capitalization on set-piece opportunities were significant in overcoming the tactical defenses of Al Markhiya, ultimately leading to their comeback victory.
