Al Sadd dominated the first half, as it presented a better level than its opponent, especially in terms of attack, when it created many opportunities, but was unable to materialize them despite the efforts of Santi Cazorla, who was the main engine of the attacks, and it was difficult to monitor him by Umm Salal players.
Despite the expulsion of Abdullah Khafifi from the 17th minute, Umm Salal managed to take the difference in the last minute of the first half, through Carlos Teixeira, who benefited from a great effort from Kodjia, following bypassing the Al Sadd defenders, causing a resounding surprise due to the numerical shortage in its ranks.

Al-Sadd deserved the victory, as it clearly raised its level in the second half, taking advantage of its numerical advantage, but its many attacks collided with a strong defensive cohesion by his opponent, who was looking for a tie point, relying on counter-attacks to exploit the progress of Al-Sadd players, and Atef Mohamed was close Whoever kidnapped a target at the alternate time.
There were many scoring opportunities for Al-Sadd at the end of the match, especially through Ghanaian Andre Ayew, who had opportunities to collect points before extra time, but Al-Sadd’s great desire to win the first victory this season made him lack focus in ending the many attacks that were available to him, to be satisfied with obtaining the first point this season.
