Our team will also hold an external training camp in Dubai on the twentieth of this month as part of the final preparations for the remaining qualifying matches, as it will meet with the Maldives on the seventh of next June and with the teams of Guam and China on the eleventh and fifteenth of the same month.
The International Federation and the Asian Football Confederation had decided to postpone the joint Asian qualifiers for the World Cup and Asia finals until June due to the Corona pandemic, noting that our team has fifteen points in the qualifiers, which they won from five victories over the Philippines 5-2, the Maldives 2-1 and Guam 4- Zero, China 2-1, and the Philippines 2-1 again.
