Sohar: Al Suwaiq completed the domestic double on Sunday when the recently-crowned Oman champions defeated Al Nahda 2-0 to win the Sultan Qaboos Cup.
Mohammed Al Ghassani opened the scoring six minutes into the second-half of the final at the Sohar Sports Complex before Hassan Rabia capped the win with Al Suwaiq’s second in the 71st minute.
The Oman double winners are eligible to take part in next year’s AFC Cup, having last participated in the continental completion back in 2012 when they reached the Round of 16 only to be denied a place in the quarter-finals after a narrow 1-0 defeat by Saudi Arabia’s Ettifaq.
