He added, “Our players are in good condition in general and have experience in playing many big matches, and we seek to continue the series of victories,” pointing out that “the presence of a player like Ayman Hussein is dangerous. When he receives the ball, he creates a threat to the goal, but we will prepare to reduce his danger in front of our goal.”
The coach continued, “Our current situation is excellent in all psychological and physical aspects, and the key to victory tomorrow is to score first against Iraq,” noting that “it is good to move the match to Yongin Stadium as it is better and helps our players play well, as we did in the Amman and Jordan matches because they They have good floors.”
The coach concluded by saying: “I have not decided on the formation, especially since we are forced to play all the lines, especially the front line, which suffers from the absence of 4 important players, but we will see what we do after the end of today’s training.”
