Manama Club Cruise Past Al-Ittihad (BHR) 3-0 to Stay Top of Bahrain Premier League

Manama Club extended their lead at the summit of the Bahrain Premier League with a commanding 3-0 victory over Al-Ittihad (BHR) on May 26, 2026. The dominant display at the Manama Club Stadium showcased their title credentials.

The hosts took control early, scoring in the 8th minute when striker Hassan Al-Hajri latched onto a through ball and finished calmly. Just before halftime, Al-Hajri turned provider, crossing for midfielder Jassim Al-Ansari to double the lead with a header.

Al-Ittihad offered little in attack, with Manama's goalkeeper rarely tested. The third goal arrived in the 75th minute as substitute Faisal Ebrahim volleyed home from a corner to seal the points. Manama Club's defense, marshaled by veteran center-back Ahmed Makki, recorded a clean sheet.

With the win, Manama Club remains top of the table with 22 points from 10 matches, three clear of nearest rivals Najma Manama. Al-Ittihad (BHR) stays in fifth place but will be concerned about their inconsistency. Manama Club next faces a derby against a local rival before the mid-season break.
