Championship 2011 in honor of the club's owner changed the team logo and stars to commemorate the AFC Champions League 1988. 2011 was etched on the shirt Wolves.[4]

During the 2011 FIFA Club World Cup, Al Sadd were eliminated in the semifinal by Barcelona, which set up a third-place meeting between them and Kashiwa Reysol. This was the first time two clubs from the same confederation faced off each other in a third-place match. Al Sadd won the encounter on penalties in order to be the first West Asian club to claim the bronze medal in the FIFA Club World Cup.[5]
