Al Ahli coach Igor Biscan spoke to the media ahead of their 2025-2026 season Doha Bank Stars League Week 2 match against Al Sadd.

“It is important to achieve a positive result against Al Sadd in the second round of Doha Bank Stars League and show a better performance than in the previous match, which we lost to Al Shamal.

“We will face a tough opponent, the defending champions, so we must be more focused and organized on the field.

“The match will certainly be tough, given the similarity between the two teams’ start to the league. However, what is most important to me is that Al Ahli put on a strong performance and perform well against Al Sadd. I have worked to ensure that Al Ahli perform differently from the way they did at the start of the league. The team must have a mentality of performing well and striving for victory,”said Biscan.

Al Ahli player Jassim Mohammed said, “Facing Al Sadd should be different for us. We did not perform at the required level in the previous match and this is an opportunity to correct mistakes and perform better against Al Sadd.”
