QSL: Jiminez, Yasin among stars to excel in round 20

The round 20 of the Qatar Stars League (QSL) which concluded last week saw five international level players step up with telling contributions for their teams.
Luis Jiminez
Former Chilean international Luis Jiminez put in a commanding performance in the centre of midfield as Al Arabi defeated Al Gharafa on Thursday evening.
The former Al Ahli man opened the scoring for his side moments after the second half restart, and looked assured in attack for Al Arabi.
Ahmed Yasin
Iraqi international winger Ahmed Yasin registered his first goals for Muaither, as Phillipe Birol’s side showed plenty of character to come back from two goals down to draw with Al Khor 2-2.
Yasin was on hand to head the ball into the back of the net on the 68th minute, and helped his side’s comeback by calmly scoring the equalizer on the 74th minute.
Mohammed Musa
Current Qatar International defender Mohammed Musa put on a defensive master class to deny Al Rayyan on Friday evening.  Musa’s running battle with fellow international Sebastian Soria was a real highlight of the game, with Musa often having the upper hand throughout the match. The no-nonsense defender was also a danger from set-pieces for his side.
Sardor Rashidov
Uzbekistan international Sardor Rashidov grabbed a brace as El Jaish returned to winning ways with a 2-1 victory over Al Shahania.
Rashidov has been a regular on the stars of the league feature this season, and his goals proved to be crucial to Sabri Lamochi’s boys.
Even more impressive was the stunning free-kick that Rashidov scored from a full 30 yards to assure the win.
Xavi Hernandez
Al Sadd midfielder Xavi Hernandez put in a captains performance as his Wolves side ran out 3-1 winners over rock-bottom Al Wakrah on Saturday.
The former Spanish international grabbed a brace and looked stable in the center of the park, dictating the play.
The win also means that Al Sadd have closed the gap on league leaders Lekhwiya to just three points.
