Omani star Imad Al-Hosni praised his former team Al-Ahli Saudi, confirming that its current playing style bears similarities to the football philosophy presented by Barcelona under the guidance of Spanish coach Pep Guardiola.

Al-Ahli is preparing to face a decisive match against Pyramids for the title of the Three Continents Cup, which will take place at the "Al-Inma" stadium in Jeddah on Tuesday evening, in a football event that brings together champions from Asia, Africa, and the Pacific.

Al-Hosni explained in his statements to the program "Dourina Ghair" that Al-Ahli possesses the character of a champion, indicating that the team is capable of making a comeback in any match even if they are down by two or three goals, thanks to their high spirit and determination.

The Omani star added that the players of Al-Ahli are experiencing an exceptional morale following their recent victory in the AFC Champions League and the Saudi Super Cup, which has instilled in them a culture of winning and the ability to overcome the toughest challenges.

Al-Hosni also emphasized that Al-Ahli closely resembles Barcelona during Guardiola's era, whether in terms of controlling the game or the ability to impose the character of a champion, which makes them strong contenders to overcome Pyramids.

Al-Ahli will play the final match of the Three Continents Cup against Pyramids at 9 PM, as they seek to clinch the title and qualify for the next stage of the Intercontinental Championship, amid expected strong fan support in Jeddah.
