The opinion of the coach of the "Shargah" football team, Olario Kozmin, is that the national team's chances of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup are quite optimistic. The tournament will take place in Canada, Mexico, and the USA. It seems that it is currently a fairly challenging path for the "Whites" in the World Group A, but the coach is ready to provide assistance to the national team, offering players from his team.
"Despite being busy with work at 'Shargah' and team affairs, I believe that the chances for the national team to make it to the World Cup will be significant," Kozmin said. He also expressed his hopes for the national team's success in its future endeavors.
He mentioned the opportunity to offer players from 'Shargah' for the upcoming matches of the national team and expressed readiness to cooperate with sports resources. Such collaboration is of great importance, considering the responsibility that players of the respective teams bear.
Kozmin has already voiced his opinion on the potential inclusion of players from the national team 'Shargah': Khalida Al-Zankhani, Shahin Abdulrahman, Kayo Lukasa, Luan Pereira, Marcus Miloni, and Majid Rashid. Their quality performance in recent times has not gone unnoticed.
The national team is set to play four matches in the crucial qualifying stage of the World Cup against Iran, North Korea, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan. Currently, the team holds the third place in Group A, behind Iran and Uzbekistan.
As for the Shargah tournament, the match against Al-Hussein from Irbid, Jordan, was challenging, yet their team, although not showcasing their best game, managed to secure victory. It was important to identify mistakes and correct them during the game.
The match with Shabab Al-Ahli in the next stages of the Asian Champions League will be challenging, according to Kozmin. He noted that at this stage of the playoffs, the games are becoming more complex as the level of the opponents increases.
The operational director of Shargah, Badr Ahmed, expressed hope that the players recover after the last game and will be ready for the next match against Al-Battah in the 17th round of the Professional League of the Arab Emirates.
