The Al-Duhail football team is concluding its intensive training at Abdullah bin Khalifa Stadium in preparation for facing Iranian Foolad Sepahan in the playoff qualifying for the group stage of the AFC Champions League, scheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday, at 7 PM on the same stadium.
Tomorrow’s match represents a true test for Al-Duhail to make a strong comeback in the continental competition after their notable absence in the previous edition.
Led by Algerian coach Djamel Belmadi, who has returned to the team’s technical bench, Al-Duhail hopes to start the new season strongly through the Champions League gateway, just days before their opening match in the QNB Stars League next Saturday against Al-Shahania at Khalifa International Stadium.
Yesterday’s main training included intensive physical and tactical drills, with high morale among all players who expressed their determination to win tomorrow’s match against Sepahan to advance to the group stage and secure the best start for the new football season.
Meanwhile, the team’s fans continue to purchase match tickets, which were released since last Saturday via Al-Duhail’s official website, with a strong attendance expected from supporters eager to back the players in this important continental challenge.
Djamel Belmadi is expected to finalize the game plan and starting lineup in today’s final training session, with many tactical options available after the club successfully completed several notable transfers during the current summer window, including Polish Krzysztof Piatek, Italian Marco Verratti, Cameroonian Jean Charles Castelletto, Brazilian defender Lucas Silva Melo, Algerian Adel Boulbina, and Senegalese Youssouph Sabaly.
