Al Gharafa bounced back from a tough home loss to league leader Al Duhail with a 3-1 win over Al Arabi.
The team, led by coach Pedro Martins, started off on the wrong foot.
Marafee scored for Al Arabi in the 32nd minute.
But captain Yasin Brahimi, a former FC Porto player, tied the game with a beautiful goal just before halftime.
