Al Ain international goalkeeper Khalid Issa said he hopes Saudi Arabia's Al Hilal will win the AFC Champions League title to qualify for the Club World Cup and emerge at the same level of honor as last year.
Al Ain reached the final of the Club World Cup in the UAE last year after a brilliant start since the first round in which they beat Tim Wellingtonington of New Zealand, Esperance of Tunisia and River Plate of Argentina while facing Real Madrid in the final.
"We have not only honored Al Ain or the UAE, but also the Gulf and the Arab world," said Khaled Issa during his participation in the launch of FIFA 20.
He continued: "I hope that this achievement will be repeated from another Arab club and my wishes that this team is the Saudi team currently participating in the Asian Champions League."
