In what was billed to be a battle of the veterans Eman would end up winning 5-3 in a back and forth game. Emaan's Soliman trio combined for 7 points and held off a relentless Ihsan attack. Ihsan's lethal power play and veteran ball control made life difficult for Emaan goalie Kunain as he faced 24 shots in the winning effort. With the win Eman catapulted themselves into first in the Mecca conference despite two losses. The Madinah conference is still under Sabr's control as Emaan and Sabr face off next week.
