Nigerian forward Henry Onyekuru scored a brace for Al Feiha but it was not enough as they suffered a a 4-2 defeat in the hands of Damac FC in the Saudi Pro League on Friday.
Al Feiha were playing in front of home support at Al Majmaah Sports City in the eponymous city but did not make it count as Damac went ahead in the 16th when Georges-Kevin N’koudou converted from the penalty spot. The Cameroon forward then assisted Abdulaziz Al Shahrani 20 minutes later for the second goal of the game.
Onyekuru halved the deficit in the 56th minute with a love drive from the edge of the penalty area but Damac were 3-1 up nine minutes later thanks to N’koudou’s second of the evening and fifth in two games after netting a hat-trick against Abha FC last time out.

The victory took Damac two points above Al Feiha into eighth place on the Saudi Pro League standings.
