To mark team Al-Anabi’s glorious triumph in the Asian Cup for the first time, celebrations were held on Sunday at the College of the North Atlantic - Qatar (CNA-Q).
The main administration building was packed with students and staff showing their national pride, praising the football team for its tremendous victory over Japan. The crowd, waving Qatari flags, enjoyed a video compilation of the highlights from Friday’s game. A cake was cut on the occasion and the gathering signed a celebratory banner in honour of the winning team.
Dr Khalifa al Khalifa, president of College of North Atlantic-Qatar, was the first to sign the banner with his congratulatory message.
“This is truly a historic moment for our glorious nation and in honour of our great leader, the Amir HH Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al Thani. We are extremely proud of Qatar for winning the Asian Cup for the first time, and making all of us very proud,” said Dr Khalifa.
Sunday’s event was a continuation of Friday night celebrations when the college opened its doors for a pubic live-streaming of the match on the auditorium’s state-of-the-art big screen. The victory comes at a time when the college has recently invested in its sport and wellness facilities, including an upgrade to the football field turf.
“Building off this success for Qatar we are putting more resources into sport activities for our student body, to prepare the next generation of leaders to be fit, strong and successful,” Dr Khalifa added.
