Hosts UAE will lock horns with Jordan in the final of the 3rd Western Asia Women’s Football Championship at the Military Stadium on Sunday.
UAE defeated Bahrain 4-0 in the semifinal on Friday. Earlier, in the first semifinal, defending champions Jordan swamped Palestine 10-0.
UAE, who had started their campaign with a 4-2 win against Palestine in Group B, didn’t have it that easy, but they came away trumps. UAE took the lead in the 37th minute through Al Jalila Ali Izzi Ali Salem Al Nuaimi. UAE went into half-time with that lead.
After the break, Fatima bint Mubarak Al Maleh doubled the lead for UAE in the 71st minute. Nine minutes later, she scored her second goal and the team’s third. UAE rounded it out in the final minute of play, off a penalty. Fatima bint Mubarak Al Maleh was fouled by the Bahrain defence and Sara Mohammad Hasanain made no mistake with the penalty. In the other game, Farah Alaezb scored a hat-trick, Zeena Petro and Mysa Jubara scored two goals as Jordan thumped Palestine. Shahnaz
Jebreen, Saima and Nabar scored one goal each.
