AL-HASA: The pressure was mounting on Al-Khaleej head coach Jose Gomes on Sept. 12. Even after holding defending champions Al-Nassr to a 1-1 draw, the question remained: Would this Al-Khaleej side continue to grow over the season, or was the result a one-off? Evidently, it was not. Since the international break that followed the Al-Nassr game, Al-Khaleej have held rivals Al-Ettifaq to a 1-1 draw and claimed their first two wins of the season: a 2-0 win over Al-Fayha and a memorable 3-2 comeback
