Zambian striker Fashion Sakala scored an equaliser and provided an assist in Al-Fayha's 3-3 draw against Al-Tai in the Saudi Professional League on Friday afternoon. Al-Fayha took the lead early in the match through Nigerian international Anthony Nwakaeme, but they lost concentration and conceded three goals in the space of 8 minutes in the 21st, 24th, and 29th minutes to trail 3-1 at the break. The match looked like it was going to be Al-Fayha's fourth defeat in a row, but Sakala played his part in the comeback, providing an assist for Henry Onyekuru in the 67th minute to reduce the deficit. He then added his name to the scoresheet in the 70th minute with a crucial equaliser for his side. Sakala has now scored 6 goals and provided 2 assists for Al-Fayha since joining them from Rangers in August this year. Sakala's performance was a bright spot for Al-Fayha in an otherwise disappointing match. The team has struggled lately, and they will be hoping to build on this draw in their next match. Sakala's form has been impressive since moving to Saudi Arabia. He has quickly become a key player for Al-Fayha, and he will be hoping to continue his goal-scoring run in the coming weeks.
