Leaders Duhail maintained a one-point cushion over Rayyan after Abdullah al-Ahrak’s early goal gave them a nervy win over Al Khor at the Al Sadd Stadium. With just one round remaining, a victory for Duhail against Al Ahli next week will assure them the title. Rayyan too faced some anxious mo- ments yesterday before Yacine Brahimi converted a penalty in the 84th minute as they stayed in contention with a 1-0 win over Al Shahania at the Al Janoub Stadium. For Rayyan to win the title, they need to beat Al Wakrah in their last match and also hope Duhail stumble against Al Ahli. Reigning champions Al Sadd (44 points) are out of contention for the title. At the Al Sadd Stadium, al-Ahrak opened the scoring as early as the ninth minute as The Red Knights held on for an important win, their 15th of the campaign, the most by any team. The defeat, Al Khor’s 11th, left them with 16 points in 11th place. The Knights next play Al Shahania (15 points), who are also facing relegation along with Umm Salal (17 points). Duhail, who had lost to Al Sadd in Week 20, dominated Al Khor right throughout the game. They attacked from the word go and went ahead when al-Ahrak volleyed in the ball from close on the turn after being set up by Almoez Ali following a cross by Ismail Moham- ed from the right.

  • A Socio-Economic Approach to the Competitive Balance in Professional Team Sports
    Available online at www.worldscientificnews.com WSN 40 (2016) 93-107 EISSN 2392-2192 A Socio-Economic Approach to the Competitive Balance in Professional Team Sports Jacek Tittenbrun Ordinary Professor, Chair, Social Differentiation, Institute of Sociology, Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań, Poland E-mail address: [email protected] ABSTRACT The present paper is organised around the notion of competitive balance in team sports, its unique approach lying in an ownership-based analysis. While the concept of economic ownership is here understood as rent, the author takes pains to point out how this approach differs from the concept of economic rent, as it is framed in neo-classical economics. The paper sets out to sketch out a socio- economic perspective from which to view the area of team sports in general, and the important issue of competitive balance in particular. The lynchpin of that perspective is constituted by the notion of economic ownership. While the latter is understood as rent, the author takes pains to point out that the latter notion sharply differs from the concept of economic rent HELD by conventional economics. The paper demonstrates the merits of the perspective which CASTS new light on many hitherto either unrecognised or misrecognised phenomena. Keywords: economic ownership; economic rent; uncertainty of outcome; competitive balance; labour power; Bosman law JEL code: L630 World Scientific News 40 (2016) 93-107 ECONOMIC OWNERSHIP It should be made clear at the very outset that the question of ownership, if it is considered in the context under examination at all, is commonly framed in terms of ownership or property rights,1 which is not the perspective of the present study, as illuminated below in more detail.
