ADNOC Pro League Results
Al Jazira 2 – 1 Kalba (13th February 2026)
It was an important home victory for Al Jazira, who secured a 2–1 win over Kalba in a closely contested fixture at the Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium. Kalba struck first early in the first half, but Al Jazira responded with composure and control as the match progressed.
Two second-half goals from Oumar Traore and Simon Banza turned the game on its head, sealing three valuable points. As the league table tightens, performances have become increasingly important as the season heads towards its decisive phase.
Al Ain 1 – 1 Al Nasr (14th February 2026)
Al Ain were held to a 1–1 draw by Al Nasr in a match that saw chances at both ends. Al Nasr opened the scoring through Mehdi Ghayedi and looked set to claim victory. Al Ain showed resilience, however, and found an equaliser when Matias Palacios scored just after the hour mark, ensuring the points were shared.
Although a point was gained having trailed in the first half, Al Ain will feel they missed a big opportunity to take all three points and go top of the league table.
