Ali Maali (Abu Dhabi)
The “VAR” technique saved the Sharjah team more than once in its match against Al Orouba in the fifth round of the ADNOC Professional League, as the first time was when it retaken the penalty kick missed by Caio Lucas, as a result of a move by Al Orouba goalkeeper Abdullah Youssef, so Caio returned and scored a goal from it. Sharjah was the first in the 58th minute, and the second time when the referee awarded a penalty kick as a result of Khaled Al Dhanhani being obstructed by the Al Orouba goalkeeper, and called the referee to award a penalty kick from which Caio Lucas scored his second goal and the fifth in the season in the 69th minute, thus saving the summit from being lost from In the hands of Sharjah, the “King” raised its score to 15 points with the full score from 5 matches, and advanced the overall standings by a goal difference from Shabab Al-Ahly.
Although Sharjah achieved a 2-1 victory, Romanian Cosmin Olario, the team’s coach, criticized his team and said: “We had to control the match better than it was, because my team is still suffering by wasting many opportunities that almost cost us a lot.” .
He added: “Unfortunately, we made mistakes, and my team was greatly confused after Al-Orouba’s first goal, and the performance in the last match was not as good as the previous matches, and we would have paid a lot of the price for the mistakes that occurred by the players.”
The Sharjah team almost lost its lead in the league due to a mistake committed by defender David Petrovic that almost gave Al-Orouba a draw, which made the coach at the time “exasperated” with what the Sharjah back line was doing, which a few days ago caused them to waste a win that was within reach in the AFC Champions League 2. When the team’s defense gave two gifts to the Jordanian Al-Wehdat striker, the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
Caio Lucas is still raising the badge of brilliance this season, not only by scoring goals, but also with the high ratings with which he tops the “King” list, and in the last match against Al-Orouba, he was the best with (8.8 out of 10) and Caio entered the scorers list with 5 goals, equal to Sardar Azmoun, Shabab Al-Ahly striker, Omar Kharbin (Al-Wahda), Youssef Nyakati (Bani Yas), and Adel Taarabt (Al-Nasr).
