The athlete also expected (Al -Arab), and as he warned after the uncomfortable levels presented by our three teams, Al -Sadd, Al -Gharafa and Al -Dahil in the League of Doha Bank, the beginning of the continental participation of the Qatari Trinity came very bad, and achieved modest results and provided levels that are not worthy And the Saudi crescent and a draw with the Iraqi police.
All that the three teams presented expected hours before the start of the AFC Champions League 2026, and if the matter stopped the bad performance, but it extended to the loss of the first points, in front of teams that are not competitors, especially Sharjah and the police, while the loss of Al -Duhail was also in front of Al -Hilal illogical, but it was in front of a strong and competitive team and on its land and between its fans.
The first Asian step was frustrated and disappointed, and the alarm bell is severe
Strange room defeat
The journey began with a strange losing to Sharjah, in a match in which Al-Gharafa excelled during the first half and advanced with two goals, and the second goal came in an ideal time in the last minute of the first half, but the excessive confidence in the limit, the expulsion of Khalifa Abu Bakr, the mistakes of the team coach Martinez directed by Yassin Brahimi, and the changes of Sharjah coach, not completely matters from Irafawi’s superiority 2-1 and then 3-2 to the loss 3-4.
The problem of Al -Gharafa is that he does not have the competent coach who can harness all these capabilities he possesses in his favor and makes him a strong fierce competitor with a better personality.
The leader is conservative
The leader also paid the price dearly to the mistakes of his Spanish coach Felix Sanchez with more (conservative) performance, is not commensurate with the capabilities of the team, his players, his great experiences, and his desire to restore the title and achieve him for the third time.
In the first half, the dam was afraid and too conservative, and when he was late with a goal, his real level appeared, but after the time was lost and an easy opportunity, the police are not one of the strong competitors for the title, and there are more competitors than a force that the dam will collide in the upcoming rounds.
Al -Duhail is relatively better
As for Al -Duhail, it was relatively better in terms of performance for many reasons, the most important of which is the great absence that struck him and deprived him of 6 of his main stars, and the opponent is much stronger than Sharjah and the police, yet Al -Duhail tried and he had a clear strategy on the field that depended on the closure of all roads leading to his goal, and launched the attacks quickly and with the lowest number of passes, which helped him to advance the first goal Pamba in the second goal may be Al -Duhail at the second Asian point.
Compensation is required
The opportunity will be favorable for the Trinity to compensate in the next round, which will be held in the 29th and 30th matches on our stadiums, and will witness strong confrontations, the most dangerous and difficult of the upcoming summit between Al -Duhail and Al -Ahly Saudi champion.
As for Al -Sadd and Al -Gharafa, they will exchange roles in the next round, where Al -Gharafa will face the police, while the dam will face with Sharjah.
