The high morale with which Al-Nasser began the second half enabled it to be in control of the playground and to threaten the opponent’s goal with several misses. The attacks continued against the Physical Education’s goal till the substitute-player Ahmed Alkhamiri scored the equalizer through a kick from inside the penalty area after manipulating the opponent’s defence. Player Omar Ba-Ibrahim got a red card due to his objection to the referee’s negligence of a penalty.  The referee decided to raise the second yellow card and, thus, Al-Nasser had to continue the last ten minutes of the match with only ten players. The team, however, was able to keep on the 2/2 result. Al-Nasser can still participate in the tournament in case its official protest against the outcome of its game versus Alwatinia is accepted. League observers confirmed the involvement of professional players from outside Alwatinia University in its team participating in the competition.
