Al Shamal delivered one of their strongest performances of the season by defeating Al Arabi 3-0 at Al Khor Stadium. The match took place during the sixth round of the QSL Cup. With fast attacks, good teamwork and confident finishing, Al Shamal controlled the game from start to finish. Their win helped them gain important points that improved their position in the tournament standings.
Moroccan star Younes Belhanda was the hero for Al Shamal. He scored two goals that gave his team a comfortable lead early in the match. Belhanda showed great skill, calm finishing and strong decision-making inside the box. His performance lifted the entire team and put Al Arabi under pressure throughout the game. The third goal came from Algerian player Abdel Samad Bounacer, who struck powerfully to seal the win.

The team has shown steady improvement across the competition, collecting points with strong performances in recent matches. Their latest win puts them closer to the top teams and strengthens their hopes for a good finish in the group.
For Al Arabi, the 3-0 loss was a major setback, but they still remain in second place with 13 points. The team struggled to match Al Shamal’s speed and intensity during the game. Missed chances and defensive mistakes added to their problems. Even though they still hold a high position in the table, the defeat highlights areas that need improvement before the next round of matches.
In another match of the sixth round, Al Shahania defeated Qatar SC 1-0 at Al Shamal Stadium. The only goal of the match was scored by Youssef Al Raisi, who used a quick move inside the box to send the ball into the net. The game was tight, with both teams creating chances, but Al Shahania proved more efficient in front of goal and earned a valuable win.
The win helped Al Shahania climb to 13 points, placing them in third place. They are equal on points with Al Arabi but remain behind them on goal difference.

In one of the most exciting games of the round, Al Rayyan defeated Al Sailiya 4-1 at Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium. Brazilian forward Roger Guedes was the standout player, scoring two goals and keeping constant pressure on the Al Sailiya defense. Abdulaziz Hatem and Brazilian Gregory da Silva added the other two goals to complete the convincing victory.

In another closely fought match, Al Duhail secured a 1-0 victory against Al Gharafa. The winning goal came from Shanin Abdullah, who finished a well-built move. The game was balanced, with both sides trying to control possession, but Al Duhail made better use of their chances.
The victory helped Al Duhail rise to 7 points, placing them 13th in the standings. The team hopes this win will boost their confidence in future matches.
