There was none of that struggle against Al Hazem as Nwakaeme set up Onyekuru in the 13th minute to equalise after the home side had gone ahead four minutes earlier from Mohamed Al Thani’s goal which was assisted by Gambia forward Mohamed Badamosi.
Nwakaeme made it 2-1 to Al Feiha in the 59th minute before he assisted Onyekuru again for the final goal in the 82nd minute.
