Qatar SC coach Marquez Lopez spoke to the media ahead of their 2025-2026 Doha Bank Stars League Week 12 match against Al Sadd.

“The upcoming match against Al Sadd represents a crucial step in the second leg of Doha Bank Stars League season. The team has prepared thoroughly for this challenging encounter.

“We anticipate a tough match against Al Sadd and we have prepared well for this game, training appropriately to deliver a strong performance. When we faced Al Sadd in the first leg, we managed to secure a victory, but the circumstances are different now and the match will be more difficult, especially as the competition has intensified with the league’s progression, and we are now at the beginning of second leg of the tournament,” said Lopez.

Qatar SC player Naif Al Hadrami said, “The team enters the Al Sadd match with high ambitions to achieve victory and return to winning ways. We are fully aware of the difficulty of the match, but we are ready and will play with all our strength to win and secure the three points.”
