Experts have identified nine technical observations on the first leg matches of the Arab Gulf Football League, six of which are positive, represented in the presence of a great convergence in the technical levels between most of the teams, especially in the foreground, and the presence of strong competition between more than one team at the top, and the superiority of the national coach represented by Abdulaziz Al-Anbari Senior foreign coaches in the league, the emergence of a number of young players who represent the future of UAE football, such as Abdullah Ramadan, Majid Sorour, Zayed Al Ameri and Khalifa Al Hammadi, and the introduction of players in the category of "Resident" themselves well, such as Igor Jesus and Luan Pereira and others, and the emergence of teams such as Bani Yas, Etihad Kalba and Khorfakkan are at good standards compared to other big teams.
The experts touched on the three negative observations about the decline in the level of some big teams, such as Shabab Al-Ahly, Al-Ain and Al-Wehda, and the emergence of some great players, such as Tigali, Cayo Canedo and Lima at a level less than what was expected of them, and the frequent interference of the fugitive referee and delaying the game for periods ranging sometimes between three and four minutes in the match. What negatively affects the “matchm”, pointing out that both Sharjah and Al Jazeera are the closest to winning the title, in addition to the fact that there are also candidate teams such as Al Ain and Al-Ahly.
They told «Emirates Today»: «There is a convergence of levels between about 10 to 11 teams, and this confirms the strength of competition in the league this season, unlike previous seasons, and we expect that the second round will be better than the previous one in terms of technical level and strength of competition between teams, especially In the wake of some teams consolidating their ranks with distinguished players during the current winter transfer period.
For his part, a member of the Board of Directors of Dibba Fujairah Club, the supervisor of the first football team, Jumah Al-Abdouli, said that Sharjah and Al Jazeera are the closest to winning the league title, in addition to the presence of competition from Al-Nasr, Shabab Al-Ahly and Al-Ain.
He said, "It is difficult to predict the outcome of the matches due to the strength of competition, as there is a convergence of levels significantly between about 11 teams."
"Relegation to the amateur league has so far been limited to three teams, which are Hatta, Fujairah and Ajman," he added.
"There are some young players who have presented themselves well, including Al-Jazira player Abdullah Ramadan," Al-Abdouli said, stressing the importance of the video judges speeding up the playing time instead of delaying it in some matches for periods ranging from three to four minutes, calling on the video judges to focus on »In playing as if they are arena referees so that the games are not affected due to the many interruptions during the game.
In turn, the former Olympic team coach, Abdul Majeed Al-Nimr, confirmed that it was remarkable for him that there were a large number of competing teams at the top, and the levels were converging between most of the teams, indicating that “one of the important observations in my estimation is that Sharjah, which tops the ranking of the teams in the first round of the league, is not affected. In the absence of any player in his ranks, because he has a good group of players, unlike some other teams, such as Al-Nasr, whose level was greatly affected after his player, Diaa Saba ', was absent from him.
Abdul Majeed Al-Nimr added, "According to my observations, there is an improvement in the actual playing time in the matches."
Al-Nimr promised "Al-Jazira team that, with the exception of its match against Khorfakkan, it is one of the best teams in the first round, while Sharjah was the only team that was more stable in the first round except for its only loss to Bani Yas."
As for the former coach of the national football team, Dr. Abdullah Misfer, he said: “The first round witnessed the brilliance of a group of players who represent the future of UAE football, such as Al-Jazira player Abdullah Ramadan, Sharjah Majid Sorour, and Al-Jazeera both Zayed Al Ameri and Khalifa Al Hammadi, in addition to the brilliance of A group of goalkeepers, in addition to that there are a number of players in the resident player category who have presented themselves well, most notably Shabab Al-Ahly player Igor Jesus, Sharjah player Luan Pereira, and others ».
Misfer added, "There are some players that we have relied on a lot, especially in the national team, but they have not yet provided the convincing level with their teams, such as Al-Nasr player Sebastian Tigali, Al-Ain Caio Canedo and Al-Wasl Fabio de Lima."
Mesfer explained, “One of the positive things that stopped me in the first round is that there are some teams that were suffering in the past that presented themselves well, such as Bani Yas, Ittihad Kalba and Khor Fakkan, in addition to the stability of the Sharjah team and its continued superiority, as it did not lose throughout the first round matches except in a match. One in front of Bani Yas.
On the other hand, one of the negative matters is that big teams such as Al Ain and Al-Ahly youth are staying away from the competition in the first round, although Al-Ahly Youth is currently starting to regain its position under the leadership of its national coach Mahdi Ali, who recently led him to win the Super Gulf Cup at the expense of Sharjah, and this means the brilliance of the national coach represented Abdulaziz Al-Anbari and Mahdi Ali ».
"There is a big question mark on a big team such as Al-Nasr, as it was supposed to be one of the competing teams in the league compared to the presence of distinguished players in its ranks, in addition to the great support provided by the club management to the team, as well as a question mark on the teams of Al-Wehda, Ajman, Al-Ain and Al-Dhafra." We expected the best of them this season ».
