Al-Adalah 0:2 Al-Fayha FC: King's Cup Match Result

Match report

Al-Fayha beat Al-Adala 2:0 in the Round of 32 of the King's Cup on Sunday evening. Hugo Moura scored both goals for the visitors, putting them through to the next stage of the competition. The match took place at Al-Adala's ground on 17 August 2026.

And here's the thing about matches like this — you can have 41 per cent possession and still not see daylight. Al-Adala moved the ball around but created nothing, while Al-Fayha found their openings. Moura opened the scoring in the fortieth minute, then doubled the advantage just before the break with a second goal in the forty-fifth.

To be fair, the statistics tell the same story. Al-Adala registered zero shots on target and an expected goals figure of 0.13. Their opponents managed seven shots on target with 0.88 accuracy, and that efficiency was enough to decide the tie. The hosts made 31 clearances while the visitors had just ten — a sign of who was under pressure.

Al-Fayha came into the fixture off a mixed run. They had lost 1:2 to Al-Sukur just three days earlier and gone down 0:2 to Den Bosch a fortnight before. Al-Adala, meanwhile, had won five straight league games at home, including victories over El-Jabal and Abha.

Both sides made six substitutions each during the second half. Al-Adala brought on R. Enad, N. Al Harthi and S. Faqihi together in the sixty-first minute, while Al-Fayha introduced Hugo Moura himself in the seventy-eighth, a point where the result was already beyond doubt.

The win moves Al-Fayha into the last sixteen of the King's Cup. Al-Adala's home unbeaten run comes to an end, and their campaign in the competition is over.
