/ The Iraqi national football team held its first training session in the Qatari capital, Doha, on Thursday evening, which was hosted by the training centers at Al-Gharafa Stadium, in preparation for participating in the Asian Cup finals, the (18) edition of which will start tomorrow, Friday, with a match between the Qatari and Lebanese teams at Lusail International Stadium in the capital, Doha.

All players participated in the training except for Saad Natiq, who the medical staff preferred to train (lightly) and individually in order to relieve fatigue, hoping that he would resume training with the group in the next two days.

Before the start of training, the national team coach, Jesus Casas, spoke to the players, urging everyone to focus more from now on, as the countdown has begun and we are actually here in Doha in the Asian Cup and not in the atmosphere of a training camp for the tournament.

It is hoped that the organizing committee will hold a meeting agenda for the teams’ arrival tomorrow morning, Friday.
