Career

Saqr played for the Qatar national team squad in the 2004 Gulf Cup of Nations which was held on home soil. He succeeded in winning the trophy for his country, as he saved three penalty kicks, which led Qatar to the 2nd Gulf Cup of Nations trophy in their history on the end of a 6-5 penalty shoot-out against Oman.

Saqr played in the 2011 AFC Champions League with Al Sadd, eventually going on to win the title. He received much praise for his performance in the final against Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors, in which he made many key saves during the 120 minutes, as well as two crucial saves during the penalty shoot-outs which his team won 4-2. Al Sadd's manager, Jorge Fosatti, expressed that he thought that Jeonbuk's misses had more to do with Mohammed's good saves rather than them taking bad shots.[2] Saqr attracted world-wide attention for his stellar performance, being voted "World Player of the Week" on November 7 by Goal.com.[3] He also won "Fan's Man of the Match" and received a mention by FIFA in the match article for his "goalkeeping heroics", describing him as arguably the most valuable player of the night.[4]
