Leonardo Jardim, Al Rayyan coach, expressed his happiness to return to winning ways again through the gates of Umm Salal after winning by two clean goals. He said in statements after the match: Al Rayyan was the best and deserved to win, as Al Rayyan players owned the ball most of the time of the match and controlled the game.
He added: In the first half, the team’s effectiveness was absent, and in the second half, the team was effective on goal, and we managed to score two goals, so I congratulate the players on this important victory, which came after a positive reaction despite not training together for a long time due to the presence of a large number of them with the national teams.
Jardim wished the team to continue its victories during the upcoming matches, especially the next match against Al Gharafa.
