Bahrain head coach Dragan Talajic has voiced his full confidence in his players and stressed that all teams in the 27th Gulf Cup still have a chance of marching through to the semi-finals.
Speaking in his pre-game Press conference today ahead of the Bahrainis’ crucial Group B clash against the UAE tomorrow, Talajic said he believes in the kingdom’s national team as they are determined to bounce back from their tough 0-2 defeat against Qatar in the opening fixture of their title-defence in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, played Thursday night.
“The Gulf Cup is a really tough tournament; we just lost the first round, but everyone still has a chance,” Talajic said.
“I congratulate Qatar for their win, but we made one mistake, which we usually do not do.
“My boys, for me, are always the best, and they know that I trust in them. Inshaallah, we will make a good job tomorrow.
“The UAE had a very strong game against Yemen. They played beautiful, modern football. We know almost everything about them, we analysed them well, but inshaallah, we will see.”
Tomorrow's match is scheduled for a 9pm kick-off, Bahrain time, and it will be played at Jeddah’s Prince Abdullah Al Faisal Sports City Stadium.
