Al Sadd’s failure to find a winner against Al Shahaniya gifted Lekhwiya a valuable present on course to winning the Qatari top flight title after their dominant 6-0 display against Al Khor on QSL matchday 19.
Al Sadd might still have a shot at winning the title, as they sit in second place with 44 points after their 1-1 draw against Al Shahaniya, giving Lekhwiya a 5 point cushion on top of the pile, and bringing them closer to winning their fifth league title in seven seasons.
Al Rayyan extend their winning streak to 6 wins in a row, as they storm past Al Ahli with a 1-5 scoreline, raising their point tally to 40 points in 3rd position, and bringing them only 4 points away from second placed Al Sadd.
