LEADERS STUN THE REIGNING CHAMPIONS
Oct 29, 2017
If you thought that Rumtha’s stay on top of the Al Manaseer Jordanian Pro League would be short lived, think again! The surprise leaders stunned reigning champions Feisali 4-2 in Irbid at the weekend, despite the Amman side taking a two-goal lead into half time.
But the northern side fought back with four second half goals to maintain their two-point lead at the top.
Wehdat are now by themselves in second after a 2-1 win at home against Al Ahli, while Jazeera slipped off the pace after being held 1-1 at Manshyat Bani Hassan in Mafraq.
Hussein Irbid picked up their first win of the season in beating That Rass 1-0, while the matches between Shabab Al Ordon and Baq'a, and Yarmouk and Aqaba both ended 1-1.
