A bottom of the table clash between Shamal and Al Sailiya was played out at the Shamal stadium on Saturday 18<sup>th</sup> Oct’ at 19:45 in the evening.<br />
<br />
From Sailiya’s five matches so far, they have just one win and lost four, confining them to just three points prior to their round 7 clash.<br />
<br />
Al Shamal, were still looking for their first victory in this year’s Qatar Stars League, having lost four matches and drawn twice from their previous six battles.<br />
<br />
And this game would be a tale of own goals that cost both sides dear.<br />
<br />
The home team went in front after Ricardo Costa scored an own goal in the 5<sup>th</sup> minute, a dream start for Diliberto’s men who need every bit of good fortune that they can get.<br />
<br />
And that’s how it stayed until the 72<sup>nd</sup> minute when Mohammed Salah levelled the scores for the Peregrines late in the second half.<br />
<br />
But the drama had yet to finish as just 8 minutes later Dutch forward Saïd Boutahar put the Musketeers back in the lead.<br />
<br />
Football can be a cruel game and just when it looked as if Shamal would record their first win, Al Shamal defender Marcone Amaral scored an own goal to give Al Sailiya a point and ruin the night for all the fans (77”).<br />
<br />
The result means that Shamal remain rooted to the bottom of the table and Sailiya move up a place to 12<sup>th</sup> in the Qatar Stars League.
