Kassandra Sabrina Scores Again as Sabah Wins Ahead of Hapoel Be'er Sheva Clash
Ahead of their Champions League playoff match against Hapoel Be'er Sheva, Sabah FC secured a 2-0 victory over Kapaz in the Azerbaijan Premier League opener on August 15, 2026. Sabah fielded a secondary lineup and struggled against the lower-ranked Kapaz, who maintained a clean sheet until the 72nd minute. Substitute Joy-Lance Mickels broke the deadlock with a penalty, scoring shortly after coming on.
Kassandra Sabrina, who transferred from Maccabi Haifa to Sabah this summer, entered the match as a substitute in the 58th minute, mirroring his role in the recent Champions League fixture. He scored again in the 91st minute, marking his second consecutive goal and sealing the win for Sabah. Meanwhile, Hapoel Be'er Sheva suffered a heavy defeat with a secondary squad in a Toto Cup ranking match.
Sabah's victory sets a positive tone as they prepare to face Hapoel Be'er Sheva in the first leg of their Champions League playoff on Wednesday. Sabrina's continued scoring form could prove crucial for Sabah's ambitions in the competition.
