Kassandra Sabrina Scores Again as Sabah Wins Ahead of Hapoel Be'er Sheva Clash

Ahead of their UEFA 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 initially against the lower-ranked Kapaz, who maintained a clean sheet until the 72nd minute. Substitute Joy-Lance Mickels broke the deadlock with a penalty, giving Sabah the lead. Kassandra Sabrina, a recent signing from Maccabi Haifa, came off the bench in the 58th minute and scored in the 91st minute, marking his second consecutive goal since joining Sabah. This win comes as Hapoel Be'er Sheva suffered a heavy defeat with a secondary squad in a Toto Cup ranking match. Sabah's victory sets the stage for their first leg playoff encounter with Hapoel Be'er Sheva on Wednesday.
