Norouz Deepens Najaf's Wounds with a Precious Victory at Home
The Norouz team achieved a valuable victory away from home after defeating their hosts Najaf with a score of one goal to nil, in the match that took place this evening at Najaf International Stadium, as part of the 32nd round of the Iraqi Stars League.
Norouz appeared organized from the start of the match, relying on counter-attacks and exploiting spaces in Najaf's defense, while the home team tried to impose control and pressure from the first minutes, but without any real effectiveness in front of the goal.
The only goal of the match came from striker Marwan Hussein in the 41st minute, after a remarkable individual effort inside the penalty area, which he finished with a powerful shot that settled in Najaf's net, giving his team an important advantage before the end of the first half.
In the second half, Najaf tried to come back and equalize the score, but they faced clear defensive resilience from Norouz, along with the goalkeeper's brilliance, who saved several dangerous attempts, allowing the visiting team to maintain their lead until the final whistle.
