MUSCAT, NOV 9
Qurayat established a six-point cushion at the top of the 2026/27 Women’s Futsal League as a commanding 16-2 victory over Al Shabab, coupled with Al Amerat’s defeat by Al Bashayer, strengthened their grip on the title race.
The fifth round of the second stage left the leaders with a perfect 12 points from four matches, while Al Amerat, Al Bashayer and Masirah are locked together on six points.
Al Bashayer delivered a significant result in the contest among the chasing clubs, edging Al Amerat 4-3 to claim their second victory of the stage and move into third place.
The narrow win brought Al Bashayer level on points with their opponents and Masirah, adding further competition for the positions behind Qurayat. They have now scored 16 goals and conceded 11.
For Al Amerat, the result marked a second successive setback following their defeat by Qurayat in the previous round. Having won their opening two matches, they have since been unable to add to their six-point tally.
Al Amerat remain second in the standings, with 20 goals scored and 11 conceded, but the latest defeat allowed Qurayat to double their advantage at the top from three points to six.
Qurayat, meanwhile, continued their unbeaten run with the most emphatic result of the round. Their 16-goal display against Al Shabab secured a fourth consecutive victory and completed a clean sweep of their first meetings with the other four clubs in the second stage.
The leaders now boast the competition’s strongest attacking record in this phase, with 28 goals, while conceding seven. Their latest success followed victories over Al Bashayer, Masirah and Al Amerat.
Al Shabab remain fifth without a point after suffering their fourth defeat. They have scored four goals and conceded 43, leaving defensive improvement central to their efforts to secure a first positive result in the remaining fixtures.
Masirah occupy fourth place with six points, having scored 17 goals and conceded 13. They sit behind Al Amerat and Al Bashayer in the standings despite sharing the same points total.
With every club having faced its four rivals once, the return fixtures will offer the chasing teams a chance to reduce the gap. Qurayat, however, enter the second half of the stage with maximum points and a clear advantage in the pursuit of the championship.
