Fujairah coach, Serbian Goran Tuvezidic, explained the reasons for his loss from Al Ittihad Kalba 1-0 in the Northern Emirates Derby match, the day before yesterday, within the fifth round of the Arab Gulf League, by his lack of many influential players, such as Ali Eid and Brazilian Oliveira due to injury.

Tovitic stressed that among the reasons is also bad luck not to score goals from several opportunities, and the loss of a penalty kick in the last seconds of the match, which contributed to the team's loss.

He said in the press conference after the match: “The players of my team performed remarkably well, especially in the second half, and we reached the goal of Al Ittihad Kalba at a great opportunity, but the ball refused every time to hit the net, even from the penalty kick, and the team did not have many options, as The player Samuel participated in the match and was just back from injury. ”

For his part, Kalba coach, the Uruguayan Jorge da Silva, said: "We played the first half in a distinctive way, and we could have scored, but at the beginning of the second half the team did not show the same attacking strength because of the desire to defend the goal."

Kalba raised its score to six points in tenth place, compared to one point for Fujairah in 12th place.
