Umm Salal coach Aziz Ben Askar spoke to the media ahead of their 2019-20 QNB Stars League Week 22 match against Al Sailiya.
“What is important for us is facing Al Sailiya. It is a fight that will determine our fate. Having worked hard so far, I am confident that our players deserved success after the great work they have been doing daily. I have been witnessing that ever since I took up coaching of the team. We will adopt the same approach.
“We will face Al Sailiya as we focus on ourselves and the players are at the top of their focus and mental readiness. They had proved it by earning a point against table toppers Al Duhail as well as Qatar SC, who are also considered as a good team.
“It is important for us not to give up and try and work to achieve our goal. I think we have done a great job because when I took over the team’s training, it was in last place with five points. Now, we have 17 points even though we are facing relegation threat,” said Ben Askar.
