The 2026-27 ADNOC Pro League continues to deliver high-octane drama as Matchweek 6 witnessed significant shifts at the top of the table. In a weekend defined by resilient comebacks and the end of historic streaks, Al Jazira clawed their way back to the summit of the standings. Here at **Business Promotion24**, we bring you the full breakdown of the action that has fans across the UAE buzzing.
### Al Jazira Rescues a Point at Kalba Stadium
Al Jazira returned to the top of the 2026-27 Pro League standings after a grit-and-glory performance against Kalba. Entering the match as favorites, Al Jazira found themselves in a shock 2-0 deficit within the first ten minutes. Kalba’s Benjamin Tetteh opened the scoring just 87 seconds into the game, followed by a strike from Guilherme Sucigan in the 8th minute.
However, the league leaders displayed the heart of champions. Malcom Oliveira pulled one back in the 22nd minute after a tense VAR review. Vinicius Mello eventually secured the 2-2 draw, earning a vital point that pushed Al Jazira to 14 points total. While Kalba moved to 11th place with five points, Al Jazira’s ability to salvage a draw proved enough to reclaim their throne.
### Shabab Al Ahli Ends Al Ain’s Historic Run
Perhaps the biggest headline of the weekend came from Rashid Stadium, where Shabab Al Ahli secured a commanding 2-0 victory over defending champions Al Ain. This wasn’t just a win; it was a statement. Goals from Sardar Azmoun in first-half stoppage time and Kauan Santos Silva in the 59th minute propelled the hosts to third place with 13 points.
The defeat was a bitter pill for Al Ain, ending their incredible 19-match unbeaten away run and their 32-match scoring streak. Despite controlling 60% of the possession, Al Ain failed to find the net for the first time since May 2025. Adding to their woes, Abdulkarim Trawri saw a late red card, leaving Al Ain in fourth place on goal difference.
### Benteke Shines in Al Wahda’s Comeback
Over at the Saqr Bin Mohammed Al Qassimi Stadium, Christian Benteke reminded everyone of his clinical prowess. Al Wahda secured a 3-2 victory over Khorfakkan in a match that swung back and forth. Khorfakkan took the lead twice through Ramiro Vaca and Tarik Tissoudali, but Al Wahda responded every time.
Benteke’s brace, including a crucial penalty in the 39th minute, ensured Al Wahda claimed all three points. This victory moves them into fifth place with 12 points, keeping them within striking distance of the leaders.
