A player of the Qatari national team and Al Sadd club. My sports career began with Al Arabi Club 2009. I spent 9 years with Al Arabi Club to move in 2017 to Al Sadd in a step that is considered a strong leap in my sports career.

The hat-trick against Al-Wakra Club in the match we won 3/2 is considered my first hat-trick in my sports career. I was playing in more than one position with Al-Arabi Club and I played in the attacking position during that match and scored three goals. The player feels happy when scoring one goal, so what about to score three goals?, especially for a defender, it is a big thing.
Q – Are you thinking of ending your sports career as a player in Al Arabi Club?
I spent happy years with Al-Arabi and I owe them credit. It was made by Peachy Boualem. I respect my contract with Al Sadd, but from the beginning I told everyone that I would end my football career in the Al-Arabi Club.

2020/2021, the season is the most important for me, during which we achieved four championships with coach Xavi. We had a great season and played important matches. We were hoping to complete the joy of the AFC Champions League, but, God willing, we will win the next championship.
Q- West Asia 2013, the first international participation and extraordinary brilliance.. What does this tournament represent for you, especially since you are its top scorer?
It was a great tournament, being on our land and among our fans. We played a good tournament and deserved to win. Although I played as a defender all season with Al Arabi Club, I played as a striker in the national team led by coach Jamal Belmadi, whom I thank for his confidence in me in my first participation with Al Annabi Qatar.
Q- You achieved with Al Annabi the 2014 Gulf Cup, which is your first participation.. What does this tournament represent for you in your career as a player?
The Gulf Cup is a well-known tournament for everyone, with its own fans. The task of getting out of the group stage was difficult, especially since we went up with three points from three draws. In addition, the tournament was outside our land, but we were fully prepared and prepared as a team, and in the end we achieved our goal, which is to make the people happy with the title.
Q – Your career culminated in the Asian Cup UAE 2019 title with Al Annabi star constellation, how did you feel then?

Akram Afif, Al-Moez Ali, Youssef Abdul-Razzaq.
Q- You participated with Al Annabi in the 2019 Copa America, the CONCACAF Cup, and the European qualifiers for the World Cup. What did these experiences add to the Qatari football on the road to the World Cup?
They added a lot, of course. Friction with strong teams from different continents generates a lot of experiences. In every tournament, we played big matches and we played peer-to-peer despite the differences between our team and other teams. All these experiences gave the players motivation and strength to prepare to the fullest for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Q – During the last Arab Cup, one Gulf team qualified for the golden square, which is the Qatar team. Can we see more than one Gulf team in the golden square in the next editions, and what do the Gulf teams need to compete?
The Arab Cup was a great tournament for the Qatari team. We played all the confrontations with full force and we hoped to win the title. That tournament revealed many teams such as Jordan, Oman and the UAE. We did our best to achieve the title, and we eventually got third place, the top four teams in the tournament. They are Arabs in Africa, their way of playing is distinctive and depends on the great physical impulse. The Gulf teams are strong. For the Qatari team, he played many matches with teams from different continents, which earned him strong experience that qualified it to compete in the Arab Cup. In general, I expect the Gulf teams to have a great deal in the next years.
Q- To what extent can we watch Arab teams achieve exceptional results in the Qatar 2022 World Cup?
Al Annabi of Qatar is able to reach advanced stages in the World Cup, especially since the tournament is being held on our land and among our fans, which will give us a strong motivation to play comfortably. I hope that more Arab teams will be present in the World Cup, and I expect Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco and Saudi Arabia to qualify.
Q – He nominated Arab and Gulf teams for us. If they qualify, can they qualify for the playoffs in the Qatar 2022 World Cup?
I expect Al Annabi, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco and the Saudi national team, of course. It is a strong team and includes many great players. I also hope for the rise of the Tunisian team, especially since it has a difficult match against Mali.
