Al Sadd coach Roberto Mancini spoke to the media ahead of their 2025-2026 Doha Bank Stars League Week 15 match against Al Shahania.

“Every match is difficult for us, as all the teams that face Al Sadd play with great intensity.

“Al Shahania defeated us in the first leg, so we need to be at our highest level of concentration for this match.

“Our players must be strong in every match and also strong in every training session. Only in this way can we win the league title,” said Mancini.

Al Sadd player Mohamed Camara said, “It will not be an easy match. The opponents are a good team with outstanding players. It depends on us. We must be 100 per cent ready for these matches. We are going through a good period and we will continue on this path to keep winning.

“It was important to beat Al Gharafa because they were five points ahead of us. We won and now we are only two points behind. For us, it is about winning every game and taking it one game at a time, and then we will see what happens.”
