Qatar SC coach Wesam Rizik spoke to the media ahead of their 2019-20 QNB Stars League Week 9 match against Al Shahania.

“This game is important for both Qatar SC and Al Shahania. I consider this match as one of the most difficult. They have an intelligent coach who can lift the performance of the team. We will try to take advantage of the situation as we play at home for the first time this season.

“We have put behind our (big) victory over Umm Salal in the previous round and are now focusing on Al Shahania.

“We have a good group of players. The same group that played against Umm Salal is going to face Al Shahania. The only addition will be Ahmed Moein.

“It is good that the players reacted excellently against Umm Salal following our heavy loss to Al Rayyan. I have difficulty in the selection of players for the starting line-up because they all compete very strongly and that is a positive sign,” said Wesam.
