Umm Salal coach Ruben Albes spoke to the media ahead of their 2025-2026 Doha Bank Stars League Week 19 match against Qatar SC.

“The match against Qatar SC will not be easy, so we must be at our peak in terms of focus and readiness. We hope to continue our recent form.

“The victory over Al Sadd was important for us and pleased everyone because the team played a strong match. However, we have put that behind us and started thinking about the next game because the Qatar SC match is extremely important, and a win will give us a significant boost in our fight to remain in the Doha Bank Stars League.”

Umm Salal player Cristo Gonzalez said, “I am happy with the team’s current form and I am also happy to have contributed to our victories. All the upcoming matches will be difficult, so we must continue to work hard to perform at our best.”
