Hosni Abd-Rabou's Ahli reclaimed top spot in the UAE League after securing a late 4-2 away victory over Jazeera on Friday.

Egypt midfielder Abd-Rabou played full 90 minutes and had a hand in Ahli's opener after three minutes.

His right-wing free-kick was inadvertently headed by Jazeera's Brazilian defender Rozario into his own net.

Brazilian striker Fernando Baiano leveled the score four minutes later but his compatriot Bare restored Ahli's advantage on 15 minutes.

Former Real Betis frontman Rafael Sobis once again grabbed the equalizer for Jazeera in the 83rd minute.

Ahli's crucial goal came through Faisal Khalil with one minute remaining and Mohamed Souror ensured the victory when he added the fourth in stoppage time.

The victory moved Ahli to the league summit on 36 points, one ahead of second-placed Jazeera.
