The away side took a surprise first-half lead, as Bruno Cesar opened the scoring in just the sixth minute at the Tahnoun Bin Mohamed Stadium.

But Jires Kembo-Ekoko equalised in the second-half, before an Asamoah Gyan penalty in the 89th minute secured the comeback.
Al Jazira surrendered a 2-0 lead at home to Al Wahda, as the game finished at 2-2.
Fernandinho and Sultan Barghash scored within six minutes of one another, as it looked like they would coast to a comfortable victory.
But Papa Waigo scored in the 39th minute, before Mohamed Al Shehhi scored in second-half injury time to rescue a point for the away side.
Al Shaab secured a priceless 2-1 away victory to Al Shabab, to ensure they escaped relegation.
Nasser Khamis Hassan open the scoring in the first-half, before Manei Mohamed Ali looked to have rescued a point in the second-half.

Founeke Sy and Driss Fettouhi put Ajman 2-0 ahead, but Alexssander Medeiros and Khali Al Ali levelled the scores before half-time.
