Al Rayyan came from a goal down to secure a 2-1 victory over Al Wakrah in Week 19 of 2025-2026 season Doha Bank Stars League at the Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium on Tuesday.
Gregore da Silva (69th minute) and Roger Guedes (85th minute) got the goals for Al Rayyan, while Yusuf Abdurisag (29th minute) netted for the visitors.
The Blue Wave opened the scoring through Abdurisag, who scored a sensational bicycle kick in the 29th minute off a headed assist by Aissa Laidouni.
The second half was, however, a different ball game as Al Rayyan’s Brazilian defensive midfielder Gregore restored parity for The Lions against all odds, rifling home a right-footed banger from 25 yards out, which evaded all contacts before settling in the top right-hand corner of goalkeeper Saoud Mubarak’s net.
The situation further moved in favour of the hosts with five minutes to go in regulation time as Guedes put them ahead with a fantastic header from the centre of the box from Khaled Ali’s cross.
The results moved Al Rayyan to 31 points with three matches left, while Al Wakrah are stuck on 23 points.
