MALDIVES - Valencia 's injury woes continue as they face Hurriyya Sports Club in today's Dhivehi league zone 9 qualification match. One of the key figures of Valencia 's striking force; James has been added to the injury list. This would be a huge blow for the team as their strikers are yet not up to the high notch so far.
Valencia 's coach Eric Williams today noted that the time gap which they have to play in today's game would be a key concern to him.
“We played two days ago and it worries me a lot. Our players might be exhausted and might not be able to perform at their best”
But to the delight of Valencia , their key defender Jameel is back from the suspension and would be in the heart of the defense line in today's game.
Eric also noted that Hurriyya is a very difficult team to play and to get a result the players need to work very hard.
‘They are one of the difficult teams to play. We have never won against them so far. It has been all ended in draws whether it is a practice match or a game even”
Eric said that he hopes that the strikers could score goals and everything to fall in place
‘The strikers are having a nightmare now. I hope they could score goals and we can relax and play our normal game”
Meanwhile, Hurriyya's Assistant coach Rafeeu noted that he hopes that everyone would perform at the best
“We have to play the match to know the performance and hopefully we could win it'
Mansoor is surely out of the game due to an injury. He did not take part in the last AFC Cup match against Happy Valley.
Ali Shiham might be opted in the starting line up in today's game as he is back from a slight injury.
