Lekhwiya (1) Al Wakrah (2)
Said Boutahar netted a brace as Al Wakrah handed league leaders Lekhwiya their second defeat of the season.
The 29-years-old Dutch midfielder did well to control Khaled Moftah’s long ball with a delicate touch that took him past the advancing goalkeeper before slotting the ball home to give the “blue waves” a 15th minute lead.
Mohamed Razak equalized for the home team in the 68th with a powerful header after a measured cross from South Korean new signing Nam Tae-Hee.
Ten minutes from time, a deadly mistake by Lekhwiya defense gave the visitors a chance to claim the three points and they made no mistake as Boutahar finished off a beautiful throw pass from Nashaat Akram.
Lekhwiya can now lose top spot on Monday, if second placed Al Sadd defeated Al Arabi in a postponed match from week 5.
Qatar SC (0) Al Gharrafa (2)
Struggling Al Gharrafa defeated Qatar SC 2-0 to claim their first away win of the season and keep alive their hopes of getting back in the title race.
Brazilian Ze Roberto gave the visitors the lead in the 61st minute with a beautifully curled shot from inside the area after the home team’s defense failed to properly clear a corner.
Veteran defender Osman El Assas, making his first start since late November, sealed the victory for “the Leopards” in the final minute when he cut in from the left hand side before sending a low strike past the keeper.
