As part of its coverage of the first leg match of Al Ain against ES Sétif, the Nujimit Newspaper specialized in sports affairs, commented on Al Ain losing to Sétif “Unfortunate Start for Zoran’s Boys at Dinamo Zagreb’s Stadium.”

The newspaper stressed: “Despite Al Ain’s field control and balanced performance, the team was not lucky enough in the first leg match. It was evident that the Emirati squad lack concentration, primarily in the front line.”

The media reporter of Nujimit Newspaper hailed the technical and physical fitness levels of the team of their countryman compared to the short period of preseason preparations and stated: “I expect Al Ain to move forward to the last 16-team stage of the championship, provided that Marcus Berg rejoins the “Boss” squad and to correct the mistakes committed by the back line.”
