Al-Hazm regained the top spot in the Saudi Second Division, by defeating Al-Kholoud with two unanswered goals in the 22nd round of the competition.
Francis Kahn and Abd al-Hadi al-Jarrahin scored the double, with the participation of Egyptian Youssef Ibrahim “Obama”.
Obama scored the first Al-Hazm goal by breaking the ball and passing it to the Ghanaian, who fired a powerful shot that hit the visitors’ net.
Al-Hazm raised its score to 46 points in the lead, with a goal difference from Al-Ahly Jeddah, who finished in second place, under the leadership of Pitso Musimani.
Riyadh comes third with 44 points, then Al-Okhdood fourth with 40 points, and Al-Faisaly fifth with 37 points.
Al-Hazm achieved its fifth successive victory in the competition, as its last fall was due to its loss against Al-Ahly Jeddah on January 18th.
Obama plays on loan from Zamalek to Al-Hazm until the end of the current season.
The first 4 teams in the Saudi second division league will qualify for the first division.
