Match Overview

In a match that mirrored the tight nature of Lebanese top-flight football, Tadamon SC Sour struck early in the first half through a well-worked set-piece routine.

The second half saw Racing press forward in search of an equaliser, but Tadamon’s backline, marshalled by an experienced centre-back, held firm.
