Arabi, Salmiya advance to Amir Cup semis

KUWAIT: Al-Arabi and Salmiya advanced to the Amir Cup semi-finals after beating Al-Jahra and Al-Nasr respectively in the quarter finals held Monday.

Al-Arabi and Salmiya will be facing each other in the semi-finals on Friday, while Kuwait and Qadsia square off Thursday for a ticket to the finals of the prestigious tournament.

At Thamer Stadium, Anayo Iwuala put Al-Arabi ahead with a goal in the 34th minute, while Kameel Al-Aswad added a second in the 52nd minute. Jahra came back with a goal for Abdulaziz Mruwee in the 61st minute, but it was too little, too late as Arabi protected its goal to seal the 2-1 win.

At the Sabah Al-Salem Stadium, Fawaz Al-Otaibi, Alex Lima and Imed Louati scored as a dominant Salmiya squad secured a 3-1 victory against Al-Nasr, whose only goal came in the 88th minute by Ali Hassan. – KUNA
