Al Shahania assistant coach Pejman Montazeri spoke to the media ahead of their 2025-2026 Doha Bank Stars League Week 17 match against Al Ahli.

“After the last match against Qatar SC, I think the team needs psychological recovery the most. We tried to get the players back on their feet and bring them back together as a unit.

“I watched many of Al Ahli’s matches. They have high-quality players capable of changing the result at any moment. We must be very careful and use all our capabilities, and we are ready for that,” said Montazeri.

Al Shahania player Mohammed Belah said, “Our preparations for the match are good. We tried to correct the mistakes we made in the previous game.

“Things are difficult, but the game is still open. We hope to perform at the required level and the most important thing is to get the three points.”
