Doha: Al Wakrah coach Ali Rahma Al Marri and Qatar SC coach Youssef Safri spoke to the media ahead of their 2024-2025 season Ooredoo Stars League Week 7 match.
Al Marri said: “This match comes after an international break and therefore the teams do not have the rhythm of the matches, and we specifically had a number of international players with their national teams, and it is very natural for the players to be affected physically, but this does not prevent us from being fully prepared to play this match in search of achieving victory.” He went on saying “Qatar SC have appeared well in the past period and confirmed that they are a strong and fierce team, and therefore this match will be difficult, especially since each team will seek to collect all points.” “We underwent normal training during the past period and tried to maintain the team’s rhythm, and we also tried to take advantage of the match we played in the QSL Cup to confirm the team’s readiness to resume the league,” said Al Marri.
For his part, Qa
tar SC coach Youssef Safri said “The last break was important for us, during which we played matches in the QSL Cup, and it was an opportunity to prepare the players, and I am generally satisfied with the teams performance, and we are now fully ready for the match against Al Wakrah.” “We are ready in the necessary manner for the match that we are playing at our home stadium and in front of our fans, and this is a great incentive to achieve victory and come out with a positive result in this strong match,” he continued.
“The current ranking is not satisfactory, but there is a great desire among everyone to improve the situation, develop the level and achieve a positive result that will take the team to the advanced positions that befit Qatar SC,” said Safri.
