Al-Dhafra player, Jordanian Yassin Al-Bakhit, said that his happiness is indescribable, after he scored the goal of qualifying his team for the semi-finals of the President’s Football Cup in the Al-Jazeera’s nets in the 119th minute, after the tie was the master of the position between The two teams score 1-1.
Al-Bakheet revealed to «Emirates Today» that this goal is very special, as it is his first with his team, as well as he responded to some criticism that touched him recently, as he said that he “prefers to respond to critics on the field,” and not through the media, noting: "I almost cried, after achieving this goal."
Yassin Al-Bakhit said that he prefers to be evaluated through his level and performance on the field, explaining: “I do not know what to say about this goal. I almost cried after I scored a goal in the last minute of the second additional period, knowing that I did not participate much with the Al-Dhafra team.”
He added: "I played against Baniyas as an alternative, while I did not participate in the victory match because of the injury after suffering a slight bruise, before I participated as an alternative to the Al-Jazira meeting, and I am very successful in my participation being effective, by achieving my goal of winning the killer time."
On the importance of the goal and whether it was in response to the Union of Kalba, who dispensed with his services in the last winter transfers, he said: «I do not like to be seen with my proficiency with Al Dhafra as a response to anyone, and as I mentioned I do not like to talk much, and I prefer that my focus be within The stadium, and it will be my response to criticism by sparking on the field. ”
Regarding whether he had considered leaving the Emirates after Kalba was dispensed with, before receiving an offer from Al Dhafra, he said: “I love the Arabian Gulf League very much, and I prefer to stay here, although I had offers from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and other leagues, but I trust that the league is here Strong, and always evolving, and I personally developed a lot by playing in four clubs: Dibba, Fujairah, Hatta, Union Kalba, and finally Al Dhafra, and happy to stay in the Emirates, and I hope to show well in my fourth experience ».
Al-Bakhit refused to consider Al Dhafra as part of qualifying for the final, as he will face Bani Yas in the semi-final, after the "Al-Samawi", the defending champion eliminated Al-Ahly youth, and said: “It cannot be said that Al Dhafra will play an easy match against Bani Yas, as (Al-Samawi) is a strong team. It includes a good group of players, and its victory over Al-Ahly youth confirms that facing the semi-final will be very difficult, because of the desire of the two teams to gain the honor of qualifying for the final of the most expensive tournament, and for us in Al Dhafra we will play the game with full force, to repeat the achievement of last season and go away in the competition ». It is reported that Al Dhafra lost its time in the final to Shabab Al-Ahly 2-1.
Al Bakhit indicated that he received great support from his colleagues, and said: “Since my move and Al Dhafra players have been very supportive of me, and they say they are betting on my brilliance, which places a great responsibility on me, and I hope that I will show a good level.”
Confronting Baniyas in the semi-final will not be easy.
She persisted in continuing in the Emirates, despite Saudi and Kuwaiti offers.
