Barcelona take on Saudi Arabia’s Al Ahli in friendly today
If you are in Qatar, and haven’t been living under a rock, then you are sure to have heard about the ‘Match of Champions’ game between Spanish giants FC Barcelona and Saudi Arabia’s Al Ahli.
The game, for which tickets had been sold out well in advance, will kick off today at the Al Gharafa Stadium at 7pm.
This is a trip that had been a long time in the making for Barcelona. They had been scheduled to play in Qatar twice earlier, but plans fell through.
Argentinian Lionel Messi, one of the best players the world has ever seen, will be in action tonight. As will Uruguayan Luis Suarez and Brazilian Neymar. However, it is not sure whether all of them will be seen in action at the same time.
Al Ahli, coached by Swiss Christian Gross, are currently third in the Saudi Arabian First Division league.
