Baghdad – IA
Football analyst Safwan Abdel Ghani blamed the Football Association for its lack of a national teams committee to discuss the coach’s choices for crucial matches, stressing the need for early work to prepare a ready list of players before facing the Jordanian national team.
Abdul-Ghani said in a statement to the (INA), today, Wednesday: “The presence of the national team committee is an important matter to follow up on the coach’s work and discuss with him his choices and decisions related to the team,” noting that “some of the names on the main list of the national team do not deserve to be present in the team.” This is the crucial stage of the qualifiers, due to the decline in their level and lack of preparedness, which negatively affects the team’s performance and leads to the loss of points.”
Abdel-Ghani explained, “The technical staff must go beyond the South Korea match and focus on early preparation for the Jordan match, with the necessity of preparing a list that includes players who are technically and physically ready, and correcting previous mistakes to preserve the opportunity to qualify for the World Cup.”
Abdel-Ghani added, “The team needs support in the coming period, with a focus on achieving the dream, without exaggerating in blaming the players,” noting that “constructive criticism can help identify mistakes and correct the course in light of the available capabilities.”
