Brahimi and Yohan Boli boost Al Rayyan's Stars League title hopes with Qatars SC win

Algeria's Yacine Brahimi and Ivory Coast's Yohan Boli were on target as Al Rayyan came from behind to defeat Qatar SC 2-1 in Friday's Stars League fixture.

The victory boosted Al Rayyan's chances in the title race as they moved to a point behind league leaders Al Duhail who have a game in hand.

Brahimi cancelled out Kayke's opener for Qatar SC at the Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium from the penalty spot in the 40th minute.

The strike extended the Algeria international's tally to 12 goals after 18 games, and he is the second highest goal scorer in the Qatari top-flight with a goal behind his compatriot Baghdad Boudjenah who has scored 13 goals for Al Sadd so far this campaign.
