The match between Al Wakrah Club and Al Sadd in the Qatar Stars League, the top division in Qatar, witnessed a wild reaction from the president of Al Wakrah Club.
It was the pinnacle of the Qatari championship: the match pitting the two best teams in the league against each other, with the opportunity for Al Wakrah to close in on the league leaders, their rivals Al Sadd. However, an incident occurred when… the president of one of the clubs entered the field during the match.
The referee awarded a penalty in favor of Al Sadd, a decision that triggered the anger of Al Wakrah’s president, Sheikh Khalifa bin Hassan Al-Thani. He marched onto the stadium field to protest dramatically against the referee’s decision.
This lengthy interruption seems to have disrupted and distracted the player Akram Afif, who ultimately missed the penalty kick. The match ended in a goalless draw 0-0.
