Al Duhail coach Rui Faria spoke to the media ahead of their QNB Stars League Week 11 match against Al Ahli.

“The match against Al Ahli will be difficult, like all games that we played so far in the league. But I trust in our ability to get a positive result. Our goal is to beat Al Ahli.

“After the break, we hope to make a strong return to the competition. We know that the mission is difficult and there is no easy match in the league. I hope we will return to the same level that we were before the break.

“Our target is to achieve full points and this is what we want in all our matches.

“For sure, the continuity of league, without break, is better. But that is not an excuse. We tried to utilise the break perfectly,” said Faria.
