Al Jazeera goalkeeper Ali Qaseif seems to have chosen the wrong sport. He would definitely make a bigger career in shooting. Two in two against the roof camera no one succeeds every day!
Of course, to put it bluntly, with such defenders, even Gordon Banks would eat two in each match. He ate so much at the premiere of Fujairah (2-2) and so much more in the second match with Ajman, which of course he won 3-2 but that tells us nothing since Ajman's defense is of the same (perhaps even worse) cafe level. "We have to correct the mistakes in the defense," said Gerets, but without a magic wand, how will this be done?
The first two games for the great Al Jazeera, which is not played offensively, were defensive inadequacy. When of course there is the trio Pitropia, Lanzini, Vucinic but also the local Ali Mambut, then we will definitely play the system "what we eat and what we put"! But what will happen when he is faced with a group of similar offensive skills? Who will put the most? We will see it in the derbies with Al Ahly, Al Shabab and other beasts. But what is happening today? Can Emirates make a rabbit? Could she be the one to put the most? So far he has a victory 1-0 in the premiere on Fujairah and a bunch of defeats 1-2 at its headquarters in Wahda. Both goals were scored by Luis Enrique who seems to be in shape, and we will definitely see something more when Herrera takes the lead. Traditionally, Emirates does not have the stature to oppose the beast in his house, but most of the time he plays openly and scores.
It is true that at the first contact with the odds, my eye fell on the 8th of the double, but then I thought that in order for a double to come, Emirates would have to put at least three, with the logic that Al Jazeera has the two her in the attack. So I only risk the 3+ goals of Emirates, so I do not worry if we eat four.
