Doha: Al Ahli lost 1-0 to Belgium’s Lommel SK on Saturday in their third friendly match during their pre-season training camp in Eindhoven, Netherlands, in preparation for the upcoming 2024-2025 season.
The Croatian coach Igor Biscan opted to rest the team’s foreign players and gave a chance to local team members for physical and technical assessment. As a result, Al Ahli fielded a lineup featuring many players who did not participate in the previous match against UAE’s Al Wasl.
Al Ahli will play one more friendly match against Qatar’s Al Shamal on August 1 before concluding their camp on August 2 and returning to Doha to continue their preparations for the new season.
The team is set to kick off their campaign in the first round of the Qatari stars league with a match against Al Wakrah on August 11 at Al Janoub Stadium.
