Al-Feiha coach Fabio Carille critiques refereeing after loss to Al-Ahli

Al-Feiha coach Fabio Carille expressed satisfaction with his team's fighting spirit following a 3-2 loss against Al-Ahli in the Saudi Pro League. Despite the defeat, Carille believed his side deserved the win, citing numerous missed scoring opportunities and a strong, balanced performance throughout the match.

Carille voiced strong frustration regarding a refereeing decision involving stoppage time in the first half. He contested the addition of an extra minute of injury time, which Al-Ahli utilized to score a decisive goal. According to the coach, the referee indicated the extension was coordinated with the fourth official, a move that caught the Al-Feiha technical staff by surprise.

Historically, Carille has a complex record against Al-Ahli across his coaching career in Saudi Arabia. While he previously led Al-Ittihad to a significant victory over Al-Ahli, ending an eight-season drought in 2021, his recent encounters with the club—including his time at Damac—have seen more mixed results.
