AlBataeh was satisfied with one point out of his match against Hatta, which took place at Khalid bin Mohammed Stadium in Sharjah on Monday, for the 24th round of the ADNOC Pro League, where the match ended 1-1, and the goal of AlBataeh was scored by team captain Mohammed Ahmed, one minute before the end of the match, to raise the team’s score to 28 points in ninth place.
AlBataeh dominated the match from the first minutes in order to score an early goal, for fear of any surprises from the guests, but the full defensive way in which Hatta played deprived him of reaching the goal, as the spaces were closed in front of Anatol and Ahmed Khalil, with a tight defensive block.
The guests surprised AlBataeh with a goal in the 23rd minute, due to a defensive error, making the ball tumble into the net of goalkeeper Darwish Mohammed, and the companions of Ahmed Khalil tried to equalize before the end of the first half and led many attacks on the Hatta goal that lacked the final touch, to end the first half with the progress of the guests.
The technical level rose in the second half, and the two teams exchanged attacks, with a clear advantage for AlBataeh, who launched a violent attack on the Hatta goal in order to modify the result, so that captain Mohammad Ahmed took care of this task and scored the rescue goal with a header from a corner by the captain inside the net one minute before the end of the match.
