Shahania moved within one point of Wakrah with a 3–0 league win on 6 November 2026. The league’s same-day report puts them on ten points, with Wakrah on eleven, after the match at Saoud Bin Abdulrahman.
The final margin arrived late
The opener came when Traore’s effort rebounded from the post onto the goalkeeper and in before half-time. Sanz added the second in minute 76; Traore scored in added time. The lead therefore remained narrow until the final quarter-hour.
A change from their previous meetings
Lusail’s head-to-head record lists Wakrah wins of 4–0 in January 2026 and 1–0 in August 2025. November brought Shahania a victory after those defeats. Marc Muniesa appears in Shahania’s official squad list; his archival cover portrait is illustrative and does not identify him as a scorer.
