Two goals in the second half have helped Saudi Arabia defeat the United Arab Emirates in an AFC Asian Cup warm-up match.

The injury-riddled sides played through a lackluster first-half, with little chances created. The deadlock wasn't broken until four minutes into the second half, when Saad Meshal Al-Harti headed in a corner kick to make it 1-0 for Saudi Arabia.

Ten minutes later another set-piece gave the Saudis a two-goal lead.

The Saudis next play Singapore on Wednesday in their first match of the Singapore Invitational Tournament, while UAE will head back to their training camp in Malaysia where they will continue preparing for next month's Asian Cup.
