The sports street is awaiting the official announcement by the National Teams and Technical Affairs Committee of the Football Association of the program for preparing the national football team for the next stage, especially for its upcoming matches on the seventh and 12th of next month against Iran and Iraq in the third and fourth rounds of the first group of the decisive round of the Asian qualifications for the World Cup 2022, knowing that there is still no official announced program for the team that includes preparing it for the next two matches.
The public is waiting for the National Teams Committee to discuss with the technical staff of the team, led by the Dutch coach Bert van Marwijk, the team’s preparation program for the next stage, especially with regard to the two upcoming matches and the need to avoid the negatives that accompanied the team’s preparation for the matches in Lebanon and Syria and to work on developing an ideal preparation program that enables the team to prepare and prepare well, and the importance of Taking advantage of the negatives that accompanied the team’s preparation program in the previous period, because its period was short, not exceeding 10 days, and the technical staff did not have the time to prepare the players and equip them in the required form for this great benefit. The extent of the players’ readiness and understanding of the coach’s plans and the way and style of play adopted by the technical staff to play the decisive role in the World Cup qualifiers, given that this stage is crucial and fateful for the team and differs from the previous qualifiers that it foughtThe team is in the first round, in which the teams of its group topped after gaining 18 points.
And former member of the Board of Directors of the Football Association, Dr. Salim Al Shamsi, confirmed to "Emirates Today" that there was supposed to be a declared and prior preparation program for the team that includes all its stages in the decisive role that qualifies for the World Cup qualifiers.
The team appeared in the matches of Lebanon and Syria with a modest performance, because of it, it lost four important points that could have strengthened its journey in the competition for the qualification card for the World Cup and the realization of a dream that the UAE public has long awaited, as it hopes that the team will be able to obtain the qualification card for the World Cup for the second time in the history of Emirates football after time The first was in the year 90 when he qualified for the finals that were held at that time in Italy.
The national team faces many challenges in the next stage due to the unconvincing level it presented in the two matches Lebanon and Syria, which ended in a draw, so that the team scored only two points out of the six points that were available to it if the team was at the normal level that it was known for in previous periods.
The national team’s matches against Iran and Iraq are of great importance and decisive for the team in its journey in these qualifiers, as it is in dire need of winning the two matches and collecting the six points in order to renew its hope in the competition.
Salim Al Shamsi said: "Coach Marvik has a training philosophy for the team's preparation process, which depends on the team's players being prepared and prepared by their clubs, by playing official matches with their clubs and not in preparation camps for the team, whether in terms of physical fitness or matches." .
He added: “The elements of the team in order to be equipped, synthesized and prepared, it is assumed that there should be a special gathering for the team before each match, and not leaving the players with their clubs under the pretext of preparing them with them, and if the coach continues with this same thinking in preparing the team, this matter will not lead to the team achieving The desired goal in these qualifiers has proven its futility, since not all elements of the national team are mainly present with its clubs, and there are players who do not play with their clubs for about a whole month while they are essential with the team.
Salim Al Shamsi stressed that the current method used by coach Marvik is insufficient in preparing the team's players.
The preparation period of the team for the matches of Lebanon and Syria was very short, and the technical staff did not have the time to prepare the players as required.
Saleem Al Shamsi:
"Marvik has a special training philosophy that depends on the preparation and processing of players by their clubs."
