This evening, the introductory press conference for the Baniyas match against Al Wasl was held for the first round of the ADNOC Pro League, which will be held at Al Shamkha Stadium. The press conference was attended by coach Daniel Isaila and goalkeeper Fahd Al-Dhanhani.


The coach started his speech: "A new start and a new season. We are excited to start the new season, continue with the same ambitions and aspirations, and perform a performance similar to what we went out with in the previous season."


He also spoke about the difficult atmosphere, noting: "As everyone knows, the atmosphere now at the beginning of the season is difficult because of the heat and humidity, and not only for my players, but for everyone. That's why we find it difficult to train daily, which is what we will face on the day of the match."

He also touched on the obstacles faced by the team at the beginning of the season, as he stressed the absence of captain Fawaz Awana due to a one-match suspension due to yellow cards, as well as the absence of Joao Victor due to injury.

He added, "We lost many players in the squad last season, as the team this season will miss Sultan Al Shamsi, Joao Pedro and Amer Abdul Rahman, who are all very important players in the team."

While he confirmed that the aspirations and goals will be similar to the last season, he said: "We will seek to restore the image that Baniyas came out with last season, which is the competition until the last breath for all the championships, and we will compete this season at the level of four championships, so an enjoyable adventure awaits us in this season." .

He added, "I see the team's players are still hungry to win and achieve positive results, which we will strive to achieve since the first round."

He also spoke about the Al-Wasl team, which indicated that the Al-Wasl team had changed from last season, as the coach watched a number of the team's preparatory matches and knew what were the strengths and weaknesses of Al-Wasl.

The coach concluded: We will enter every game in the season with the aim of collecting full points and winning. We do not know now who will compete and who is close to the title, as all teams are equal at the beginning of the season until the picture becomes clear over time.

The player Fahd Al Dhanhani also spoke, who indicated that the team is fully prepared for the next match, as the team finished the preparation period very well and everyone is excited for the start of the season.

Al-Dhanhani added: "We will enter the season with the same ambition and determination, which is to win every match we play and give everything we have to compete for all championships."

And he concluded: “A big match awaits us against Al Wasl in front of our fans, which we will certainly seek to get out of with full points.”
