Al Duhail beat Qatar SC 2-1 in Week 8 of the 2021-2022 season QNB Stars League at the Al Gharafa Stadium on Saturday.

Qatar SC were quick off the blocks and opened the scoring through Javi Martnez in the 15th minute.

Al Duhail struck back through Nam Tae-Hee (38th minute) and Michael Olunga (46th minute).

Al Duhail took their points tally to 21 with their seventh victory and Qatar SC stood on six points following their fourth defeat.

With Qatar national team coach Felix Sanchez watching from the stands, Al Duhail held ball possession for the first 10-odd minutes making inroads through Almoez Ali and Olunga, but Qatar SC’s backline remained alert to all moves.

In the 11th minute, Almoez drilled a curling right-footed shot from the edge of the Qatar SC box, but his shot sailed past the crossbar without causing any damage.

A minute later, Sebastian Soria found his Qatar SC team-mate Bashar Resan whose shot also sailed past a goalpost to the left of keeper Mohammed Al Bakri.

Qatar SC’s Spanish defensive midfielder Martinez broke the deadlock in the 15th minute when he headed home off a corner kick by Bashar.

Martinez produced a high jump to send the ball into the net after a slight deflection off Al Bakri’s hand.

Nam brought delight to the Al Duhail camp when he produced a long-range bullet to score the equalizer. After picking a throw-in, the Korean ran with the ball a few yards outside the Qatar SC box. With time and space at his disposal, he curled in a spectacular shot that sailed above keeper Jassim Al Hail’s head, hit the crossbar and smashed into the net.

Olunga helped Al Duhail jump to a 2-1 lead when he scored soon after the start of second half. After picking up a loose ball following a defensive lapse inside the Qatar SC box, Olunga swivelled and drilled a left-footed shot that went past the left of Qatar SC keeper and smashed into the net.

In the 64th minute, Qatar SC’s Omar Al Emadi came close to scoring his long-range shot, but the Al Duhail keeper produced a slick save with a dive to his left.

Three minutes on, Qatar SC’s Bashar got space to drill a shot that was smartly collected by Al Bakri.

Four minutes from the end, Qatar SC’s Salmin Al Rumaihi attempted a drive as he swivelled from close range, but the keeper collected the rather feeble shot.
