Brendan Rodgers Says Al Qadsiah Ready to Face Al Gharafa in AFC Champions League Elite

Al Qadsiah coach Brendan Rodgers said his team is ready to face Al Gharafa at Thani bin Jassim Stadium in the fourth round of the AFC Champions League Elite. He said the team was looking forward to the match and targeting a positive result against a strong opponent.

Rodgers noted that the short recovery period had not prevented the players from being fully ready. He added that the team aims to win its matches and had put its six-goal victory over Al Riyadh in the Saudi league behind it.

Al Qadsiah player Koen Casteels said recovery had gone as it should and that the team was going through a good spell physically and in terms of results. He added that the players were aware of Al Gharafa’s attacking ability and would approach the match with focus and prepared for its various scenarios.
