Al Nasr clinched the first domestic trophy of the UAE football season — and their first in 25 years — on Friday night following a 4-1 victory over Sharjah in the Arabian Gulf Cup final. A brace from striker Ibrahima Toure, one from new signing — and former Swansea winger — Pablo Hernandez, and a penalty by Mahmoud Khamis did the damage for Nasr, while Rodriguinho pulled one back for Sharjah.
Here is a selection of the best images from Friday night’s final.
