Al Rayyan's decisive 3-0 victory over Al Ahli Doha was primarily built on clinical finishing and superior performance in key moments. The away team scored twice in the first half with well-timed attacks, the first goal coming at 00:29:45. They managed to double their lead shortly after at 00:36:40, putting Al Ahli under significant pressure early in the match. Al Rayyan's ability to convert opportunities, especially early in the game, set the tone and made a comeback highly challenging for the home side.

Al Ahli Doha struggled to respond effectively to Al Rayyan’s advantage, managing only three corner kicks compared to the away team’s four. The home team's limited offensive pressure contributed significantly to the lack of goals. Despite their efforts to push forward, Al Ahli's lone offside call suggests attempts to break through the defense were insufficiently coordinated. Al Rayyan's more disciplined approach is further evidenced by their three offside calls, reflecting a strategy to apply constant pressure, even at the risk of straying offside.

The match was notably physical, with five yellow cards issued, three to Al Ahli and two to Al Rayyan. Al Ahli's early yellow card at 00:12:26 may have disrupted their rhythm, creating a more cautious play style to avoid further bookings. Al Rayyan's yellow cards, appearing later in the game, indicate their focus on maintaining control despite Al Ahli's attempts to turn the tide. The disciplined performance helped Al Rayyan effectively manage the game and ultimately secure their third goal in the second half at 01:28:31, sealing a comprehensive win.
