In an exciting display of international teamwork, Qatar’s Ministry of Interior (MoI) and the Internal Security Force (Lekhwiya) stepped onto a different kind of field last Sunday — the iconic Old Trafford Stadium — to help ensure the safety and security of one of football’s biggest showdowns: the Manchester Derby!

As Manchester United took on Manchester City in one of the most intense fixtures of the English Premier League, Qatari security forces were there in the thick of it, working closely with local authorities in the UK. The collaboration was all about bringing Qatari expertise to the table and let’s be honest, when it comes to securing major events, Qatar knows how to get it done.
From hosting the world’s biggest sporting events like the FIFA World Cup™ to managing large-scale national celebrations, Qatari security teams have built a reputation for precision, professionalism and people-focused planning. Now, they’ve shared that experience with international partners in Manchester, showing once again that security isn’t just about boots on the ground, it’s about building bridges and learning from one another.

According to the MoI, this participation is part of a broader effort to exchange knowledge and strengthen international cooperation. It also reflects the global trust placed in Qatar’s capabilities, as the nation continues to receive praise for its security management at world-class events.
Fans attending the Manchester Derby — which draws over 70,000 spectators — can rest a little easier knowing that an extra layer of seasoned support is in place. And back home, many in Qatar are proudly cheering on Lekhwiya’s contribution, celebrating the team’s presence on this international stage.
From Doha to Manchester, it’s another proud moment showcasing how Qatar continues to play a key role in global sports beyond just the games themselves.
