In a tightly contested match that kicked off at 22:00, a single goal proved decisive as Kalba's defense held firm under late pressure from the hosts. The only goal of the game came midway through the second half, with Ittihad Kalba breaking forward on a swift counter-attack and finishing clinically past the Baniyas goalkeeper.
