Al-Duhail have gone top of the Qatar Stars League after hammering Al-Sailiya 5-0 in an epic clash staged at the Khalifa International Stadium.
Harambee Stars striker Michael Olunga was the star of the moment as he netted all five goals to steer his side to victory during the Sunday, September 26, clash.
The encounter was pretty much balanced through the first half as both sides settled for a scoreless draw into the break.
However, upon the resumption of the second half, Al-Duhail, who were the hosts loaded their guns as they fired from all cylinders to take the lead through Olunga in the 56th minute.
The Kenyan striker doubled the advantage after six minutes before adding the third in the 68th minute.
The former Kashiwa Reysol forward took the game beyond the visitors in the 79th minute before completing his five-star performance with five minutes left on the clock.
Arsenal sink Spurs
Earlier, TUKO.co.ke reported Arsenal vs Tottenham Hotspur ended in a 3-1 win in favour of the Gunners who continued with their newfound momentum at the Emirates on Sunday, September 26.
The encounter came at a time the two teams have been on almost polar opposite trajectories so far this season.
While Spurs had a bright start to the season under new boss Nuno Espirito Santo, Arsenal lost all of their opening three fixtures.
However, the Mikel Arteta-tutored side have enjoyed a somewhat resurgence with back-to-back win over Norwich and Burnley.
The Emirates outfit built on the momentum when they welcomed their city rivals at home, with Emile Smith Rowe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bukayo Saka all getting on the scoresheet.
