Al Nasr salvaged a point thanks to an added time goal from Brazilian forward Caique in a 2-2 draw against Al Wahda in Round 12 of the Arabian Gulf League.
The home side led with a ninth-minute strike from Israel signing Diaa Sabah before Paul Mpoku netted the equaliser for Wahda four minutes into the second half.
Korean midfielder Lee Myung-joo put the visitors in front on 59 minutes but they couldn’t hold on as Caique struck a minute into added time at the Al Maktoum stadium on Friday.
Nasr goalkeeper Ahmed Shambih did well to save a spot kick from Mpoku on 38 minutes.
The Nasr captain Mahmoud Khamis felt his side missed on an opportunity to win in a game that saw them miss a few opportunities and a second half strike from Sebastian Tagliabue ruled out by VAR for offside.
“We didn’t have much luck tonight,” Khamis said. “We started well and scored an early goal.
“We are challenging for the title and I thought we missed an opportunity. We could have doubled the lead from the chances we created and then had a few chances in the second half.”
Nasr remained in third position, five points behind the leaders Sharjah and three behind the second placed Al Jazira.
Wahda captain Ismail Matar his young side was “satisfied” to return with an away point.
“We have a lot of young players and it was a satisfying performance considering we have a lot of youngsters in the side,” he said.
Shabab Al Ahli rallied from two goals down to earn a 2-2 result against 10-man Al Wasl at the Zabeel stadium.
Joao Figueiredo found the net twice in the third and 14th minutes but they were reduced to ten men when defender Abdulrahman Saleh was given a straight red for a tackle.
Shabab Al Ahli returned from the break better organised and Brazilian forward Carlos Eduardo found the net twice in 49 and 56 minutes, but they failed to force a first win in three games under new manager Mahdi Ali.
Baniyas eased to a 3-1 victory over Al Dhafra at home to take their tally to 23 and move to fourth spot
Sultan Al Shamsi and Suhail Alnoobi scored first half goals and Brazilian Joao Pedro made it three before Saeed Al Katheeri pulled one back on 65 minutes.

What is the FNC?
The Federal National Council is one of five federal authorities established by the UAE constitution. It held its first session on December 2, 1972, a year to the day after Federation.
It has 40 members, eight of whom are women. The members represent the UAE population through each of the emirates. Abu Dhabi and Dubai have eight members each, Sharjah and Ras al Khaimah six, and Ajman, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain have four.
They bring Emirati issues to the council for debate and put those concerns to ministers summoned for questioning.
The FNC’s main functions include passing, amending or rejecting federal draft laws, discussing international treaties and agreements, and offering recommendations on general subjects raised during sessions.
Federal draft laws must first pass through the FNC for recommendations when members can amend the laws to suit the needs of citizens. The draft laws are then forwarded to the Cabinet for consideration and approval.
Since 2006, half of the members have been elected by UAE citizens to serve four-year terms and the other half are appointed by the Ruler’s Courts of the seven emirates.
In the 2015 elections, 78 of the 252 candidates were women. Women also represented 48 per cent of all voters and 67 per cent of the voters were under the age of 40.

Key recommendations
- Fewer criminals put behind bars and more to serve sentences in the community, with short sentences scrapped and many inmates released earlier.
- Greater use of curfews and exclusion zones to deliver tougher supervision than ever on criminals.
- Explore wider powers for judges to punish offenders by blocking them from attending football matches, banning them from driving or travelling abroad through an expansion of ‘ancillary orders’.
- More Intensive Supervision Courts to tackle the root causes of crime such as alcohol and drug abuse – forcing repeat offenders to take part in tough treatment programmes or face prison.
