Mabkhout misses the UAE national team in the "Venezuela friendly"

International striker Ali Mabkhout was absent from the UAE national football team's squad during its international friendly match, which was held today, Tuesday, in Austria, at the end of his preparatory camp.

Mabkhout is considered the team's trump card in all matches, while Argentine coach Rodolfo Arruabarina gave the opportunity to new faces to participate in this match in the starting lineup, including goalkeeper Mohammed Al Shamsi in the place of Khaled Issa, who participated in the previous match against Paraguay.


The UAE national team played the Venezuela match with a different squad than the one in which it played in the last Paraguay match.


Mabkhout participated in the UAE national team's starting line-up during its previous match against Paraguay, which was held last Friday and ended with Paraguay winning with a clean goal.
