Ajman’s journey changed with Romanian coach Daniel Isaella, who was on the verge of leaving the “Orange” castle, after he led the team after the fourth round and had one point on his plate, and as a result the Brazilian Zanardi was appointed.
The Romanian coach is credited with restoring balance to the team with which he collected 33 points in 22 matches, including 10 points in the first round and 23 points in the second round. His players scored 39 goals and conceded 47 goals.
The team also achieved a record of not losing in 9 consecutive rounds, and the last loss was against Al-Wasl, the league champion, in the 19th round, after which it won over Al-Wahda, Khor Fakkan, Al-Bataeh, and Al-Jazira, and tied with Hatta, Al-Nasr, Sharjah, and then Bani Yas twice in two consecutive matches.
While Al-Samawi finished its campaign in tenth place with 26 points, equally with Ittihad Kalba, eleventh, winning 7 matches, drawing 5 matches and losing 14 matches, and its players scored 33 goals, and conceded 46 goals, and the first draw was against Ajman. It kept the team out of the relegation calculations, while the second draw was behind the team’s advancement to tenth place.
At the same time, Ajman coach Isaila confirmed that he had not decided his position on whether or not to continue with Ajman, and the negotiations are ongoing and conditional on the offer, plan and ambition, indicating that he hates this period because of the negotiations from the clubs’ agents, and I do not give them a response of approval or rejection, explaining that he does not have official offers. From other clubs so far.
Isaila thanked the players, the technical and administrative staff, and the club’s management, which he considers to be one family, like his period of work in Baniyas, and said: “We achieved many positive results, especially in the second half of the league, and I will analyze the team’s results with the staff, and what we have provided is the maximum possible.” Achieving it, and when I took over the job, the team was suffering from injuries, and we did not have time, and when we got an opportunity in the middle of the league, we rearranged the cards, which was reflected in the team in the second round of the league, and small details prevented us from winning a number of matches.”
