Doha, Qatar – December 17, 2025: As Qatar gears towards National Day celebrations, TOD marks the occasion by reaffirming its commitment to the Arab spirit and culture. The leading sports and entertainment streaming platform continues to spotlight the role of Arab talent in shaping the future of storytelling and sports viewing.
To mark the special day, TOD is streaming Ode to Our Land, a documentary that celebrates Qatar’s journey and spirit.

The most-watched matches across the region was Jordan vs. Iraq, followed by Algeria vs. UAE, Palestine vs. Saudi Arabia, and Morocco vs. Syria.
