Al Wahda was satisfied with achieving third place in the general standings table of the ADNOC Professional League, behind Shabab Al Ahli "winner of the title", and runner-up Al Ain, by drawing with its guest Bani Yas, 1/1 this evening in the confrontations of the last round of the competition. Al-Annabi raised its score after this draw to 52 points, and Bani Yas to 24 points in 11th place.

Al Wahda succeeded in getting the lead in front of Bani Yas, by the fire of his friend to the heavenly defender Sasha Ivkovic, after turning the cross of the Argentine, Facundo Daniel into the net. But this goal did not overlook the advantage of Bani Yas in the first half, which threatened the goal of substitute goalkeeper Rashid Ali on many occasions, as if most notably Shaheen Sorour's shot, which the goalkeeper brilliantly turned away for a corner kick.

Rashid Ali returned to shine in the dimensions of Ahmed Abu Namous's header, to keep a clean sheet for his team in the first half. The Al Wahda goalkeeper was forced to concede a goal at the beginning of the second half, from a mistake committed by the Brazilian, Lucas Pimenta, so that Nicolas Jimenez, took advantage of this mistake and put the ball in the net. The players made a great effort to realize the progress again, pressing all its lines, and the post stood in front of the addition of a second goal, from Alan Lorero's shot, to bounce without finding a follower.
