Al Arabi coach Yeray Rodriguez spoke to the media ahead of their 2024-2025 season Ooredoo Stars League Week 12 match against Al Shahania.

“The team will enter the match with full focus and commitment from the beginning until the final whistle.

“We must maintain the approach followed by the team to provide a distinguished performance in the second leg of the league, by creating many opportunities and exploiting them to score goals and outperform competitors.

“The match is very important for us to be back on the right track and regain the team’s balance and we seek victory. Fighting seriously throughout the match is important. I wish the team success despite the absences resulting from injuries and suspensions. The available players are able to compensate for that,” said Yeray Rodriguez.

Al Arabi player Jassim Jaber said, “The team’s preparations for the match went off well, thanks to the great work done by the technical staff. The players are looking forward to getting the three points. We have full respect for Al Shahania.

“We must be fully focused for a strong competition. The club’s reputation requires us to compete strongly in all tournaments we play. I speak on behalf of all players and I confirm that we will be at the highest levels of focus to achieve the desired goal.”
