DUBAI — A United Arab Emirates league match between Al-Ain and Al-Ahli ended early Saturday after an object thrown from the stands struck an assistant referee and left him bleeding. The referee stopped the match after his assistant was hit by a metallic object during the three minutes of added time, the missile hurled from the section containing home Al-Ahli fans, who were angered after a late penalty appeal was turned down. The goalless draw in Dubai took table toppers Al-Ain to 50 points, 10 points ahead of Al-Ahli, although authorities said the result would be suspended pending an investigation. “The result has been suspended,” the league said. — Reuters
