Manager Shabab Al-Ahli, Portuguese trainer Paulo Sousa, confirmed that the preparation for the "Riyad Al-Dubai" match went ideally ahead of today's match with "Al-Jazira." He noted that the preparation for this game was better than earlier, and this helps them showcase a strong performance on the field. Sousa emphasized that they strive to present their unique football identity before such a strong opponent as "Al-Jazira."
At the press conference yesterday, Sousa said: "The preparation for this final match was better than before, as we had a great opportunity to prepare, unlike previous periods when we consistently had to deal with pressure in matches." He added that this adequate preparation period positively reflects on the players' performance and gives them the opportunity to choose from various options within the team of players ready for the game.
The trainer also mentioned some difficulties they face, stating: "We experience challenges in attack, creating many moments, but sometimes fail to utilize them, and at times there is a lack of concentration on key moments of the matches. We are trying to seize some titles this season, and we are fully ready for the next stage." "It's very important to utilize the available opportunities."
Serbian playmaker Shabab Al-Ahli Luka Milivoevic confirmed that their team enters the decisive stage of the current season in "good shape," noting that the team possesses the necessary experience and readiness for successful performances in upcoming matches.
