Amman: Second half goals propelled Al Taawoun FC to a 2-0 win against Al Faisaly in their AFC Champions League Two 2026/27™ Group C match on Wednesday.
It was the second win for the Saudi Pro League side as they stayed top of the standings on seven points, four clear of Jordan’s Al Faisaly.

Al Faisaly asked questions of Al Taawoun’s defence from early on, Charles Ahoua pumping a cross from the left flank that found Claudio Maradona who, however, steered his header wide.

The Brazilian forward showed great desire in the 22nd minute, holding off two defenders before flicking the ball into Anas Hammad’s path but Mailson stood strong to palm away the shot.

Al Faisaly’s pressure forced the visitors to camp inside their own half for the majority of the first half but clear chances were few and far in between for the home team despite their dominance on the ball.

The away side got the breakthrough in the 52nd minute when Bajrami fed second-half substitute Parfait Guiagon who shifted the ball to his left and curled a beautiful effort past Abdallah Al Fakhori.

Going behind did not dampen Al Faisaly’s spirit as they went in search of the equaliser with Saidou Simpore blasting wide from close range before Maradona’s deflected cross landed on top of the crossbar and bounced out of play.

Victory was sealed in the 77th minute when a slip from Noor Al Rawabdeh gifted the ball to Younes Elbahraoui to run three quarters of the pitch unchallenged before squaring to Faris Al Ghamdi for a simple tap-in.
