Al Salmiya defeated Kazma 3–2 on 8 November as Kuwait’s eighth league round concluded with five wins and one draw. The final scores agree across Jadwel’s season programme and Instakora’s round record. This review covers the other five fixtures alongside our separate report on Kuwait’s victory at Sahel.
The round began on 6 November with a 2–2 draw between Al Fahaheel and Sulaibikhat, while Al Tadamon beat Al Shabab 3–1. Al Arabi defeated Al Nasr 2–1 the next day and Al Qadsia won 1–0 at Al Jahra. Al Salmiya then added three points by edging Kazma in the five-goal encounter.
Those five games produced seventeen goals. Al Salmiya against Kazma was the highest-scoring of them, whereas Al Qadsia combined a single goal with a clean sheet. The winning points return was the same despite the different margins and goal totals. Al Fahaheel and Sulaibikhat shared the points in the round’s only draw.
These comparisons describe the recorded outcomes rather than unverified possession figures or tactical explanations. The season calendar also includes extended dates for some rounds, so the round number alone does not establish that every club has completed the same number of matches. Reading the league standings requires both each team’s points and its actual games played.
