Dibba entered the second half more actively and Iraqi striker Mohanad Ali succeeded in scoring the first goal for his team in the 56th minute against Al Bataeh, with a powerful shot from inside the penalty area, making it the 40th goal for Iraqi players in the history of the Professional League.
Al-Bataeh tried to come back in the match, but their attempts were unsuccessful, and Dibba maintained their first victory at the final whistle.
