Al Khurtiyath (0) – AL Sadd (1)
A second-half goal from Yousef Ahmed helped Al Sadd to their sixth victory this season as they
close the gap on league leaders Lekhwiya to just two points with a game in hand.
It was always going to be a difficult match for Al Sadd as their opponents were in good form and in their previous fixture they claimed their first Qatar Stars league victory this season, a 4-1 away win over Al Ahli.
The Asian champions dominated most of the match, and scored their only goal in the 64th minute through Yousef Ahmed, followed up Nadir Belhadj’s blocked shot with a simple tap in.
Ahmed, who was one of Qatar’s stars during the past Asian Cup in Doha, he was given a rare start as the main strikers Ivorian Abdul Kader Keita and Senegalese Mamadou Niang are on international duty.
Seven minutes later, Al Khurtiyath wasted their best chance to get something out of this match, as Onyekachi Okonkwo’s penalty hit the post.
Al Arabi (2) – Al Ahli (0)
Al Arabi ended their winless streak with a 2-0 home victory over Al Ahli. The team’s only victory
this season came against Al Wakrah in week 2, exactly 144 days ago.
A result achieved under the helm of interim coach Abdullah Saad, who took over after the Brazilian Paulo Silas was sacked.
A trademark free-kick from Leonardo Pisculichi gave the “Dream Team” the lead after 30 minutes, before new signing Ernest Arko sealed the three points with a powerful header three minutes from time after a perfect cross from Mohamed Khalifa Al Kuwari.
The Ghanaian striker joined Al Arabi during the winter break on loan from Egyptian club AL Jaish.
