Ivić: Al Ain first football team was supposed to be occupying the second place of the tournament’s standings table
Vladimir Ivić, who is the Serbian head coach of Al Ain first football team, emphasized that his team did perform very well through its match vs Ajman first football team, he also pointed out that “The Boss” managed to score a legitimate and true goal by Mateo Sanabria, who is the Argentine winger for Al Ain first football team, but the pitch referee canceled the goal under the pretext of offside, despite the scored goal had been deemed legitimate and true from his point of view. During the evaluative post match press conference, Vladimir Ivić said the following statement: “I will not be divulging a secret if I told you that I do not understand how a penalty kick was not given to Al Ain first football team in the last minute of the match’s lifespan, where Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba, who is the Togolese forward player for Al Ain first football team, was clearly pushed inside the penalty area by Ajman first football team’s defender, though this is not the first time in which we come under such unfortunate referring decisions.”
The Serbian head coach of Al Ain first football team added the following statement: “Honestly speaking, we have lost up to 9 points since I took over the responsibility of training Al Ain first football team, this is due to the cancellation of legitimate and true goals and the cancellation of legitimate and true penalty kicks which were not given to our team. Is there anyone who can explain to me why those unfortunate decisions happen this way? How many times did we lose points due to such unfortunate situations? I have never seen something like this all over my professional career in the realm of football. Even though, I do not like to talk about referees, but what I have already witnessed makes me obliged to straightforwardly speak with honesty.”
The Serbian head coach for Al Ain first football team went on by adding the following statement: “We had almost twenty nine scoring attempts on the forward line of play against the post of Ajman first football team, while there was a clear and deliberate intention to delay the game and to waste time. Of course, we lost three to four scoring chances, while we scored a legitimate and true goal that should have been given to our team.”
Over the Al Ain first football team’s being knocked out of the competition race to qualify to AFC Champions League for the Elite football tournament, Ivić said the following statement: “Certainly, this is not our sought after ambition. We deserved to be occupying the second place on the tournament’s standings table right now, if it were not because of the points which we lost due to the clearly unfortunate referring decisions. We also lost at least 7 points which were enough to put us on an advanced position on the tournament’s standings table, a position that would have qualified us to the tournament.”
Over the fate of Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba, who is the Togolese forward player for Al Ain first football team, the Serbian head coach said the following statement: “On the time being, Laba is still under contract with Al Ain first football team up until the conclusion of the upcoming sporting season, so this is what we need to be talking about, because he is currently a player within the ranks of Al Ain first football team.”
