Romanian Cosmin Contra, coach of Al Ittihad, warned his players that Al Hilal would be more furious after losing the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup to Al Faihaa last Thursday.
Contra emphasized the importance of concentration throughout the match, redoubling efforts and following instructions.
The coach is eager to meet his players after practice, in preparation for tomorrow’s Monday Clasico against Al Hilal in the 27th round of the Prince Mohammed bin Salman Pro Cup.
Trained medical staff ensured the readiness of all players.
On the other hand, Al Ittihad signed a contract with new partner SAL who will be the club’s sub-sponsor until the end of the season in the amount of 20 million. At the age group level, the Federation came very close to resolving the U-17 youth league after defeating Al Fateh 3 : 2 and he needs to beat Al-Ahly next Wednesday to claim the league title.
