The match ended in a goalless draw between the teams of Zakho and Al-Karma, on Wednesday evening, at the Al-Ramadi Stadium, as part of the 38th and final round of the Iraqi Stars League for the 2024-2025 season.

The match was balanced for most of its stages, as both teams entered the game with relative ease after securing their positions in the standings, which was reflected in the course of the match that lacked attacking excitement and real chances on both goals.

The first half witnessed tactical discipline from both sides, with limited attempts to penetrate the defensive lines, but without creating significant danger. Both sides showed a desire to finish the season without a loss, which made caution dominate the performance.

In the second half, the situation did not change much, as the play remained confined to the midfield with some individual attempts from Zakho players, countered by defensive solidity from Al-Karma, which focused on closing spaces and avoiding risks.

The changes made by the coaches did not significantly alter the pace of the match, and the game ended without goals, allowing each team to earn a point to add to their tally at the end of the long journey.

The result allowed Zakho to continue its positive results under the leadership of coach Abdul Ghani Shahid, who finished the season without any defeats since taking over, and the team maintained a clean sheet for the eighth consecutive match.

As for Al-Karma, they appeared balanced and succeeded in thwarting Zakho's attempts, but they lacked the offensive effectiveness that could have granted them a moral victory at the end of their good season.

With this result, Zakho and Al-Karma concluded their season in a stable manner, with promises to improve performance in the future, especially as both clubs plan to strengthen their squads during the summer transfer window in preparation for the new season.
