Rimal Sign Off With 2-1 Away Win at Dragon City to Finish Runners-Up

Rimal Al-Sahra SC signed off their inaugural 2025/26 campaign with a 2-1 away win at Dragon City, the result that completed a runners-up finish in UAE Division 3.

It was a fitting way to close the season: a composed win on the road, and a second victory in a row after a 2-1 home win over G-Reds FC in the previous round.

The wider picture was historic. In their very first season, a newly founded club finished second in UAE Division 3 - thirty-two matches, twenty-two wins, three draws and seven defeats for sixty-nine points, eleven behind champions Modern Sport FC and two clear of third.

The road was where much of the season was built. Twelve wins from sixteen away fixtures made Rimal one of the division's strongest travelling sides, and the trip to Dragon City was the last of them.

As the final whistle sounded, Rimal Al-Sahra SC had written a remarkable opening chapter in UAE Division 3 - a runners-up finish at the first attempt, and a platform for the seasons to come.
