Sharjah 24: The national team is gearing up for an important match against Uzbekistan next Thursday in the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. They are determined to win and keep their hopes alive for reaching their goal.

The team has started its final training sessions at Al Nahyan Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Coach Cosmin Olariu shared a message with fans on the UAE Football Association's official website, saying, "This is a significant day and night for everyone in the UAE. Get ready to support the players. The main goal is to win."

The players began a closed training camp yesterday, with everyone present as they prepare for the upcoming match against Uzbekistan, followed by another game against Kyrgyzstan on June 10.

Coach Cosmin is focusing on getting the players both physically fit and tactically sharp, making sure they work well together on the field and improve their ability to score goals. He has expressed his appreciation for the players' hard work and discipline, noting that the team has what it takes to reach their objectives.

Currently, the UAE team is in third place in Group A, with 13 points. They are behind Iran, who has 20 points, and Uzbekistan, who has 17 points. The UAE is hoping for a victory to keep their chances of direct qualification alive, provided they win their next two matches and Uzbekistan draws or loses to Qatar.
