The unstoppable Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba fired holders Al-Ain right back into ADNOC Pro League’s title mix and Al-Dhafra’s 11-year stay met its demise in a gripping matchweek 23.
A heavyweight match-up at Hazza bin Zayed Stadium with star-studded Sharjah was settled by Laba’s ruthlessly dispatched, unanswered brace.
With three matches left, this invigorating 2-0 victory helped Al-Ain create a tantalising three-point gap to long-time leaders Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai after Morocco magician Adel Taarabt’s 91st-minute goal secured an entertaining 2-2 draw for 10-man Al-Nasr.
