Away victory in a principal derby! United FC gets three points – 1-2

On the 1st of December United FC faced Gulf United FC, which also promoted from Second Division League UAE. At first game was quite calm. Ahmed Sulaiman, Moussa, Ebrahim and Dao played safe and didn’t let Gulf United FC create a lot of chances. Also Abdulla showed his confidence while saving the goal. Then Chelo, Imade and Pape had some chances but couldn’t take them. United FC kept dominating till the end of the first half. So both teams went to the locker rooms without scoring.

The second half started with the pressure from our midfielders Arona Fall and Essa Marwan. And because of the pressing Imade passed the ball to Chelo and he opened the score. The whole team celebrated with him. Then on the 55th minute Chelo doubled the score. By the way it is his second double for United FC. Til the end of the game United FC kept creating chances but no one scored the third goal. However on the 88th minute Gulf United FC scored from the penalty. And the match ended with the victory of the away team.

Our coach Lauvel Johann Ulrich said after the match: “The second half was very interesting, I asked the players to press in the middle. That’s how the first goal was scored. I’m very happy because all the players and the staff worked hard. This victory is for the staff”

United FC showed great performance and took really important three points. Our team goes on working and preparing for the next game against Gulf FC on the 10th of December. United FC welcomes everyone to come and support us on our home stadium ISD Stadium Pitch. Come on UNITED!
