  "account": "Al-Fayha claimed a crucial 3-2 victory over Abha in the Saudi Pro League, thanks to a standout individual performance from new signing Lazaro Vinicius. Vinicius opened the scoring in the 32nd minute with a well-placed low shot from the edge of the box, securing Al-Fayha's advantage. His second goal arrived just six minutes later, as he capitalized on a rebound off the crossbar after Fashion Sakala's effort, slotting the ball into an empty net. Despite Ali Jouri pulling one back for Abha six minutes from the end with an impressive overhead kick from inside the penalty area, Al-Fayha extended their two-goal lead in the 87th minute. Abdo Yalo inadvertently turned a low cross into his own net while attempting to clear, sealing the win for Al-Fayha. In a dramatic finale, Michy Batshuayi converted a stoppage-time penalty awarded after a VAR review, despite Abha's relentless efforts, ultimately making it 3-2. With this win, Al-Fayha now sit at 11th place in the Saudi Pro League standings, boasting four points, while Abha remains at the bottom with one point.",
