 Ali Samereh shines as Al Shaab hold Al Jazira

Meanwhile, Al Jazira looked in a very good shape right from the beginning of the second half thanks to the efforts of their substitutes Hussain Suhail and Ogbeche and the redeployment of the Ivorian play maker Diaky Ibrahim to operate behind the two spearheads.<o:p></o:p>
