Al Shamal coach David Prats spoke to the media ahead of their 2025-2026 Doha Bank Stars League Week 17 match against Qatar SC.

“We are expecting a tough match against a strong and well-organized team with talented players. We faced Qatar SC a few days ago in the Amir Cup, but this match will certainly be different in a different competition, and we must be ready.

“The team has been working hard recently, emphasizing their readiness for the match and expressing my confidence in the players’ ability to perform at their best to continue their impressive run this season,” said Prats.

Al Shamal player Mohammed Omar said, “It will be a tough match for both teams, as each is eager to win and secure the three points. Our preparations have been excellent, and we are looking forward to achieving victory, continuing our winning streak and maintaining our position at the top bracket of league table.”
