Bataglia Nets Perfect Hat-Trick as Bani Yas Trounce Dibba

Rafael Elias Bataglia scored a hat-trick to fire Bani Yas to a rampant 4-1 thrashing of Dibba in matchweek seven of the ADNOC Pro League on Saturday.

 

 

Khalid Mohamed Hashemi opened the floodgates and put the visitors ahead after 17 minutes when he met Suhail Ahmed Alnoobi's cross with a first-time volley that dipped wickedly into the net.

 

 

Alvaro De Oliveira restored parity for the hosts after firing a superb strike into the top corner of the net in the 29th minute.

 

 

Two minutes after the break, Elias Bataglia gave the lead for Bani Yas with a powerful header that nestled into the bottom corner.

 

 

Fourteen minutes after the hour mark, Bataglia grabbed his brace when Dibba's defenders failed to properly clear the ball as it fell to the Brazilian forward, who kept his composure and passed the ball into the back of the net with a smart finish.

 

 

The fourth was quick to follow, with Bataglia timing his run perfectly to head in Ahmed Shehda Abunamous' cross.

 

 

The victory means Bani Yas sit 10th with eight points, while Dibba remain at the bottom of the table with just one point
