Today, the press conference for Bani Yas’ upcoming match against Ittihad Kalba in the next round of the ADNOC Professional League was held, in the presence of Bani Yas’ technical director, Mr. Daniel Isaila, and the team’s player Fahad Badr.

Coach Daniel Isaila began his speech by pointing out the difficulty of the match, praising Ittihad Kalba’s level this season. He said:
“We have a difficult match ahead of us against a team that has shown during this season that it is very stubborn. Ittihad Kalba plays distinctive football, and relies heavily on counterattacks and quick transitions that pose a danger to any team that faces them.”

Isaila explained that Bani Yas’ technical staff carefully analyzed the opponent and diagnosed their weaknesses, saying:
“We have studied the strengths and weaknesses in Kalba’s performance, and we will try to exploit those points to our advantage. The team has two different faces; sometimes they perform very well, and other times they do not. Our goal is to control the match and reduce their offensive opportunities.”

Regarding Bani Yas’ performance in the previous match against Al Wasl, the coach said:

“We played a very good match against Al Wasl, and I am completely satisfied with the team’s performance. What we lacked was the final touch in front of goal and scoring goals, and we will focus on improving that in the coming period.”

Regarding readiness, Isaiala confirmed that the team does not suffer from injuries, but will miss two important players due to suspension, namely Khamis Al Mansouri and Joao Victor. He added:

“We have to continue working hard and improving our level continuously. We realize that the second round of the league will be more difficult, especially after the changes made by most teams. However, we are ready for this challenge and will fight to achieve positive results.”

Fahad Bader: “Our only goal against Kalba is to achieve victory and make the fans happy.”

For his part, team player Fahad Bader confirmed that the main focus in this match is to achieve victory, saying:

“Our goal in this match is only to win. We are working intensively in training and doing our best to develop and improve the team’s level.”

Badr pointed out that all the players feel a responsibility towards the fans and the club, adding: “There is a great commitment from all the players to give their best, whether in training or matches. We know that Bani Yas fans expect more from us, and we always strive to make them happy through performance and results.
