Al Sadd will play El Jaish this Friday December 5^th at the Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium at18:30.

El Jaish Assistant head coach Asaad Chebbi:
“We all know that this is one of the biggest games of the season, we will have 12 internationals on the field of play this Friday. Six international players for us and six international players for them.”

“Al Sadd is a top club and they deserve to be at the top as they are still undefeated. The El Jaish players don’t need any motivation for this one; this game will have to be managed more in regard to the tactics employed by both coaches.”

“We know that if we lose then there will be a gap between us and them of over ten points. If this happens then we know that to win the QSL shield will be very difficult this season, not impossible but very difficult.”

“Sadd too have plenty of motivation as they are top and will want to stay there. With regards to injuries we only have one, Wagner Reynar will not play.”



Hussein Ammouta:
“We have a big mission this week, as always between these two teams there will be a physical element to the game. And I’m sure it will be very tactical. Sadly we have a lot of injuries in the squad and few key players certainly won’t be fit in time.”

“However we do have some good players on the bench and this will be a big game for them and I must manage them well and make sure they can hit the ground running, so to speak.”

“With regards to Muriqui, we have so far not seen him play a single game in the QSL. He played a little in the Sheikh Jassim Cup but since his injury he hasn’t been able to play. If after another month he cannot take to the field then sadly we might have to let this player go.”

“Yousef Ahmed, Hamza Senhaji, Mehdi Ali and of course Khalfan are not likely to take part.”
