UAE Division 1 Group A – 29 May 2026

Al-Jazira Al-Hamra delivered a commanding performance under the floodlights on 29 May, cruising to a 3‑1 victory over a stubborn Ahli Al-Fujirah side. The result keeps the home side firmly in the hunt for promotion places, while the visitors remain mired in the middle of the Group A standings.

Match Overview

From the opening whistle, Al-Jazira Al-Hamra imposed their tempo. Their high press forced Ahli Al-Fujirah into several early turnovers, and it took only 12 minutes for the hosts to break the deadlock. A swift counter‑attack down the right flank ended with a low cross turned in at the near post.

Ahli Al-Fujirah, however, refused to buckle. They grew into the contest and equalised just before the half‑hour mark with a well‑worked set‑piece – a looping header from a corner that caught the home defence flat‑footed. The 1‑1 scoreline at the interval reflected a competitive first half.

Second‑Half Surge

Al-Jazira Al-Hamra emerged from the tunnel with renewed intensity. The manager’s half‑time adjustments paid off immediately as the home side regained the lead in the 52nd minute through a driven strike from the edge of the box. From that moment, Ahli Al-Fujirah struggled to regain their shape.

The hosts sealed the points with a third goal midway through the second half. A patient build‑up ended with a precise through ball, splitting the defence and allowing the forward to slot calmly past the goalkeeper. Despite late pressure from Ahli Al-Fujirah, Al-Jazira Al-Hamra held firm to secure a well‑deserved 3‑1 victory.
