Mallorca vs Al-Fateh

Luvumbo's second goal in first-half stoppage time effectively ended the contest. Al-Fateh had held firm for 40 minutes, but the two goals in quick succession — separated by only five minutes of play — gave Mallorca complete control. The Saudi side managed only one shot on target across the entire 90 minutes.

Zito Luvumbo — The Angolan forward was the match-winner, scoring twice in five first-half minutes (40', 45'). His movement in behind the Al-Fateh defence caused problems throughout and he could have had a hat-trick. Clear player of the match.

Mallorca midfield — The provider data shows Mallorca enjoyed 70% possession and created 14 total shots (6 on target) to Al-Fateh's 3 (1 on target). The midfield's control of the game was the platform for the victory.

Al-Fateh defence — To their credit, Al-Fateh held firm for 40 minutes and kept the foul count even at 8-8, but they were overwhelmed territorially, failing to win a single corner.

The scoreline flattered Al-Fateh slightly less than the balance of play suggests. Mallorca's 70% possession and 14-3 shot advantage (6-1 on target) reflect a one-sided friendly. The 5-0 corner count underscores the territorial dominance: Mallorca camped in Al-Fateh's half for long spells. The absence of any yellow or red cards is typical of a pre-season friendly played at a controlled intensity, with both sides prioritising fitness over aggression.

This was Mallorca's first pre-season outing as they prepare for the 2026/27 La Liga campaign. Manager Martin Demichelis (per tempotips) will have been pleased with the sharpness of his attacking unit, particularly Luvumbo. Al-Fateh, coached by an as-yet-unnamed permanent manager, continue their own pre-season preparations after a 6-0 win over Glacis United on 22 July (per 365Scores). The Saudi Pro League side will face stiffer tests as their pre-season progresses.

A controlled, professional pre-season performance from Mallorca against a limited opponent. Luvumbo's double was the standout takeaway, but the underlying numbers — 70% possession, 14 shots, five corners to zero — tell the story of a team operating at a noticeably higher level. Pre-season friendly results carry limited weight, but the patterns of play will encourage Demichelis.
