Hamad Mohamed pulled one back and reduced the deficit for the visitors in the 84th minute with a superb strike from inside the box.

A minute later, Ayman Hussein scored his first goal with Al Jazira and sealed the victory when he beat two defenders before drilling the ball into the bottom corner of the net with a sensational finish.

The result means that Al Jazira sits sixth with 43 points, while Al Bataeh is 13th with 18 points.
