In the 37th minute, Benjamin Bourigeaud received a second caution and the red card.
In added time of first half, Mance deflected in a Cristo Perez cross. Al Duhail equalised early after the break as Al Rawi scored from a free-kick into the left corner of the net.
Umm Salal then went ahead with Laidouni’s header to a corner kick and the ball bounced before going in.
