Kenya’s Olunga on target as Al Duhail SC defeat Al Gharafa to lift Emir Cup

Kenya striker Michael Olunga clinched his first trophy since arriving in Qatar after helping Al Duhail SC defeat Al Gharafa 5-1 in the final of the Emir Cup at Khalifa International Stadium on Friday night.

The first half of the match ended with Duhail taking a 2-0 advantage, the first goal coming from Edmilson Da Silva in the fifth minute after unleashing a shot from inside the penalty area before the lanky Olunga grabbed the second in the 18th minute.

In the second half, Duhail continued to control the match and scored the third goal, which came from Al Moez Ali in the 52nd minute before Gharafa reduced the deficit through Ahmed Alaa in the 53rd minute, but Tunisian international Ferjani Sassi added the fourth in the 58th minute.

Abdeirahman Moustafa then scored the fifth goal in the 85th minute to help Duhail end the season with a trophy, having missed out on the Qatar Stars League title which was won by rivals Al Sadd a week ago.
