Malaba returns from suspension to lead the Ittihad Kalba attack in front of Bani Yas

Ittihad Kalba Togolese player Pinel Malaba returns to participate with his team, starting from the next match that will bring together the "Tigers" with Bani Yas in the quarter-finals of the Arab Gulf Cup Football competition, after completing the suspension penalty.

"The preparations for the match are good and the positive thing is that all the players attend while they are fully prepared," Kalba Uruguayan Football Federation coach Jorge Da Silva said, explaining: "We aspire to achieve a positive result at Baniyas Stadium to avoid any surprises in the return match."

He continued, "The match will be important in the cup, and it will be a preparatory match for the next league match against Sharjah. If we can qualify for the golden square, it will be a historic achievement for the club, and our goal is to achieve positive results in all the tournaments we play."

He continued: "We achieved the result of the victory over Bani Yas in the league, and we are seeking to repeat the victory over Bani Yas in the Arab Gulf Cup, but the match will not be easy, especially as Bani Yas seeks to avenge his previous defeat at his home in the league with two clean goals."
