Maaloul: This is what the Syrian team lacks to reach the World Cup
Tunisian coach Nabil Maaloul, the coach of the Syrian national team, revealed the technical problems that the "Nusour Qassioun" team suffers from, which prevented it from reaching the World Cup Finals.
Maaloul said in a press statement to Syrian media, that: "The most prominent problems that the Syrian team suffers from is the lack of complete focus during its matches, especially as one opportunity may take you to the World Cup, and one point may prevent you from qualifying or lead you to reach the World Cup."
He added: "Spirit and discipline are among the basic factors that must be focused on at the moment, followed by work on the physical side, because for me, the importance of the soul comes before the physical level, and the second factor of importance is after discipline. The player who has the spirit and passion is the one who fights on the field. Every opportunity is available. "
He continued: “The coach who allows the president of the club, or the president of the federation, to interfere in his work is a disrespectful coach, and during my previous coaching career many of the heads of the clubs I trained tried to impose one of the players on me, but I refused any interference in my work, and I had many problems. Because of this issue.
”Maaloul referred to the status of Syrian football, and said:“ It is surprising that the Syrian national team, during its long history, which includes great players and stars that shone even on the Arab scene, did not succeed in qualifying for the World Cup, but in the end I will go with (Nusour) Qassioun) until the end of the road, and I will strive to fulfill the dream of the Syrian public to reach the World Cup.
