The head coach of Al-Wasl, Masoud Miral, expressed his frustration over the draw against Ajman. "I feel great frustration because the team deserved to win," he said. Ajman's coach, the Serbian Goran Tovidzic, acknowledged that the red card received by his player Walid Azaro was justified. "It is not right for a player to applaud the referee's decision in that way, and the expulsion was deserved," he said. Al-Wasl raised its points to 15, placing it fourth, while Ajman remained ninth with 10 points. This came after yesterday's goalless draw with Ajman in the eighth round of the ADNOC Pro League. This is the fifth consecutive match in which Al-Wasl has failed to achieve victory in various competitions. Despite Ajman playing the second half with 10 men after the expulsion of their Moroccan striker Walid Azaro, Al-Wasl failed to capitalize on their possession into goals, making 21 attempts on Ajman goalkeeper Ali Hussaini's goal, who was the man of the match with his repeated saves from Balasios, Ali Saleh, and Serginho. Masoud Miral told "Al-Ittihad": "We played a good match, and we created many chances but we couldn't score."
