The highly anticipated match between Al Kholood and Al Qadsiah, originally scheduled for March 5, 2026, has been postponed. This decision was made due to the cancellation of Al Qadsiah Club’s flight to Qassim, which is critical for their participation in the match.

The postponement was attributed to urgent logistical circumstances arising from ongoing armed conflict in the region. The Saudi Pro League has stated that the situation is being monitored closely, with security protocols being followed to ensure the safety of all involved.

Rescheduled Match

The rescheduled match is now set to take place on March 7, 2026, at 10 PM local time. This adjustment aims to provide Al Qadsiah with sufficient time to arrange safe travel to Qassim.

Al Qadsiah features notable player Nacho Fernández, a former defender for Real Madrid, adding to the stakes of this match. The league’s decision to postpone comes amid broader concerns, as the Asian Football Confederation had previously suspended qualification matches in the West region due to military operations.

Earlier in the week, the Saudi Ministry of Defence reported a drone attack by Iran on the U.S. embassy in Riyadh, further highlighting the tense atmosphere in the region. The ongoing armed conflict has severely impacted air navigation, leading to the classification of airspace as unsafe for sports teams’ travel.

As of now, the future of both continental and domestic competitions remains uncertain if tensions persist. Further updates on the match and league status are pending from the Saudi Pro League. Details remain unconfirmed.
