Hazm booked a seat in the King's Cup for Champions' semifinals after a 2-2 draw with Al-Ahli at the Prince Abdullah Al-Faisal Stadium here on Friday.
It was the former Al-Ahli striker Waleed Al-Jizani who edged the Jeddah side as he scored both the goals for Al-Hazm.
The two sides drew 1-1 in their first leg match at Al-Hazm Stadium in Al-Rass last week.
Al-Rass-based Club will now host in the semifinals against the winner of Al-Ittihad and Al-Ittifaq clash on Sunday.
Hassan Al-Raheb put Al-Ahli ahead after 25 minutes as he blasted the ball from inside the box to the left side of Al-Hazm goalkeeper Waleed Al-Sabhan.
In the 34th minute, unmarked Al-Jizani found himself one-on-one with Mansour Al-Najae and leveled the game.
Al-Ahli players pressed forward and the teams regained the lead five minutes later as Mohammed Masad's long shot hit the net of Al-Sabhan.
Few minutes from the break, Al-Hazm was reduced to ten players after Naif Al-Mosa was sent off .
Al-Hazm entered the second half with nothing to lose. The team went on an all-out attack but Al-Ahli defenders stood firm.
In the 60th minute, Al-Jizani made a solo effort on the right edge and drove into the box before blasting the ball to the right side of Al-Najae to make it 2-2.
On Saturday, Al-Shabab plays Al-Wehdah at the King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh while Al-Hilal faces its home rival Al-Nasr on Sunday at the Same avenue.
Al-Shabab won the first leg 5-2 while Al-Hilal drew 1-1 with Al-Nasr in their derby match last week.
