To address the observations that accompanied our performance and we will work to correct them. I thank the players for their personality and their desire to win, which is very important for us to achieve the ambitions of the club management and the technical staff.

Regarding the results formed by the winning numbers under his leadership, that Shabab Al-Ahly did not lose 20 matches in a row, he said: “The numbers do not matter to me. All I care about is the development of the team, physically and technically, and certainly the most important thing for us as a winning team in all matches, and we will work to be in the form of Always better ».

• Shabab Al-Ahly converted their 2-0 defeat into a 3-2 victory over Fujairah, and scored the decisive goal in the 90th minute.
