Biography
Hassan Khalid Hassan Al-Haydos (Arabic: حَسَن خَالِد حَسَن الْهَيْدُوس; born 11 December 1990) is a Qatari professional footballer who plays as a forward for and captains Qatar Stars League club Al Sadd and the Qatar national team.
Al-Haydos started playing football for Al Sadd at the age of eight, advancing through the ranks until he reached the first team at age seventeen. He had support and guidance early on from Jafal Rashed Al-Kuwari. He was one of the players to take a penalty kick in the penalty-shootout against Jeonbuk in the 2011 AFC Champions League final, scoring after the ball deflected off the top post. The victory ensured Al Sadd would earn a place in the FIFA Club World Cup as the representative for Asia. In the third-place match between Al Sadd and Kashiwa Reysol, he was again selected to take one of the penalty kicks after the match had ended 0–0. The penalty shoot-out was won by Al Sadd 5–3. He was voted as the 'Best Qatari Player' in 2014 in a poll conducted by Doha Stadium, receiving 58 out of 104 votes from a panel of analysts, coaches and administrators.
