Karim El Berkaoui continued with his impressive goalscoring run in Saudi Arabia’s top-flight, while the duo of Ahmed Hegazi and Mohamed Fouzair were given their marching orders as Al Raed played a 1-1 draw with Al Ittihad on Saturday evening.
With Raed Al Tahadi looking destined for defeat, the former Morocco U23 star ensured honour was shared at the King Abdullah Sport City Stadium, thanks to his fine strike.
Boasting victories in their last three encounters, the Tigers travelled to Buraidah with the ambition of claiming maximum points – which would boost their title ambitions.
