HEBRON: Shabab Al-Khaleel won 3-1 in the Clásico Khaleeli against Shabab Dhahariah.
The Hebronites are waiting nnnow for Markez Balata’s match against Tubas (Wednesday), to see if the title is theirs. For the first time since 2016.
What a season for Shabab Al-Khaleel. In the first part of the season, they weren’t even in the title race, but since the winter break and Tamer Seyam’s arrival from Moroccan Hassaniah Agadir, everything changed.
Today, they control the match from the very first moment. Rami Masalma scored on the 32nd minute and completed a brace exactly half an hour later. In between Mohammed Yamin added a goal of his own. Ezzadine Rabba only reduced the loss by one goal for Dhahriah in the 67th minute. 3-1 Shabab the final result.
On regular days, matches between the two have been turning into a fantastic crowd display, but Shabab is marching towards a title in front of empty stands in Dura International Stadium.
