Murad Al-Masry (Abu Dhabi)
Baniyas defender Sasha confirmed that the decision to live in Abu Dhabi and play in the ADNOC Professional League is the best step he has taken in his career, in light of the ideal lifestyle he found here with his family, and in terms of the level of competition in professional competitions.
Sasha, who has completed five years in the ranks of Al Samawi, recalled the decision he made and said: “When I came to the Emirates, I did not have sufficient information about the nature of life here, but after only two months had passed, I realized that I was in the best place to settle with my family. In Abu Dhabi, the living conditions are among the best in the world, but at the football level, the competition is open between the teams, and the levels are strong and close in most matches.”
Sasha expressed his appreciation to the Baniyas management for giving him confidence over the past five years, and said: “I realize that most clubs constantly change foreigners here, so to have support and stability throughout these years is something that has always made me strive to give my utmost in serving the team.” “The environment is very ideal within the club, and it is the main reason for what I achieved during this period with the team.”
The player preferred to postpone talking about his future until the end of the season, and said: “There is a conversation with Baniyas. I do not want to comment on the other offers. My entire focus at the present time is on ending the season in the best way. I want to play the remaining matches, which I consider the most important at the present time. “We will see how things go to determine the future.”
Sasha confirmed that Baniyas was not “lucky” this season, and said, “We deserved to score goals in many matches, and at the same time we conceded goals in moments and we did not deserve that. Despite that, the players are united together and the atmosphere is wonderful within the team, and we realize that we are capable.” “We must provide positive results in every match we play against any competitor.”
The player expressed his appreciation for the efforts of coach Darko Milanic, and said: “He brought positive things to the team. We proved that we are capable of competing with all the teams in the competition. Perhaps we, as players, had to make better decisions in attack and defense in order to get points that we wasted that were within reach.”
In response to his distinctive goal-scoring abilities during his career with Baniyas, he said: “I was scoring goals before I came to the team, and here I succeeded in improving the matter by increasing my goal tally. Perhaps this season is considered the least since I only scored two goals. In general, any defender He always aspires to score this type of goal with set pieces, specifically in order to bring additional points to the team.”
The player concluded by stressing that “Al-Samawi” is looking forward to gaining the largest possible number of points in the remaining rounds to end the season in the highest possible position on the ranking table, before opening the page for the new season.
