After the own goal, Tarel Salman doubled Al Sadd’s lead in super style after Fettouhi made a header and Al Ahli’s defence erred. Salman made a sprint to beat two defenders before going on to beat the lone goalkeeper Marwan Sherif.
Al Sadd’s third goal was all the more entertaining as an Afif strike was staved off by goalkeeper Marwan Sherif but the ball went to Paulo Otavio, who rammed in a cross and Mujica left-heeled it in, shaking the net.
