Erik Jorgens, Laba Kodjo, and Andrii Yarmolenko all scored as Al Ain cruised to a 3-0 victory over Khorfakkan at Saqr bin Mohammad al Qassimi Stadium in matchweek 22 of the ADNOC Pro League on Sunday.
It took 54th minutes for the visitors to find the breakthrough and break the deadlock when Khorfakkan's defender failed to properly clear the ball from a corner kick as it fell to Erik Jorgens, who kept his composure and fired a powerful strike into the top corner of the net, to make it 1-0.
The momentum was with Al Ain, and it was no surprise when they doubled their lead when Khalid Al Blooshi orchestrated a fine one-two with Erik Jorgens to open up a space, before sending a superb cross to Laba Kodjo who met it with a clinical finish into the back of the net.
Just three minutes later, the visitors added the third goal of the night when Laba Kodjo was teed up inside the penalty area and sent a low cross into the six-yard box, where Andrii Yarmolenko found it easy to curl the ball into the back of the net, to make it 3-0.
The victory means that Al Ain sit second with 44 points, while Khorfakkan remain eleventh with 21 points
