7 reasons behind the modest start of Arabism in “The Professionals”

The modest results of the Orouba team, in the current season of the ADNOC Professional League, contributed to it being the team that recorded the least positive results among the teams that rose from the first division to the professional league, over the past years, after losing 11 of the 12 matches that the team played in the tournament. League so far.

Several reasons, most of them technical, contributed to the decline in the team’s performance and results, despite the great efforts made by the club’s management to have a successful sports season that would lead to remaining in the professional league for another season.

“Emirates Today” monitored the most prominent artistic scenes that led to Al-Orouba occupying last place with only three points from a single victory:

1 – Goalkeeper

Al-Orouba Club lacked a goalkeeper with the specifications to play in the professional league, especially since the main goalkeeper, Abdullah Youssef Sanqur, who led the team to promotion, went through multiple recovery stages after a long injury period, while the other two goalkeepers, Jamal Abdullah and Hamid Abdullah, were also injured.

2- Unsuccessful contracts

The club contracted with foreign and resident professionals who had average technical capabilities, were not suitable for playing in the professional league, and were not in harmony with the technical ideas of Portuguese coach Bruno Pereira, such as Gambian Boubacar Traulli, Malian Tikoura Traoré, and Cameroonian Gabriel Kak.

3- Lack of technical stability

Portuguese coach Bruno neglected technical stability, which is the essential element for achieving positive results, by starting matches with different formations, which disturbed the technical harmony between the players, weakened the technical performance, and exposed the team to successive losses.

4 – Technical reading

Coach Bruno was unable to accurately read the technical capabilities of the team’s players, which led to the hiring of a technician who was not useful to the team, as Al-Orouba had the least possession of the ball and did not create offensive opportunities in many matches.

5- Poor scoring

Al-Orouba team is considered the weakest in terms of scoring goals, as it only scored seven goals, and the team went out in six matches without scoring any goals, which were against Al-Jazira (0-2), Kalba (0-3), and Al-Wahda (0-3). Ajman (0-2), Al-Wasl (0-6), and Al-Bataeh (0-1).

6- Psychological situation

The team has been suffering from great ongoing psychological pressure since the beginning of the season, and no attempts at treating this problem have succeeded, which caused the team to lose focus early and led to a decline in public support for the team.

7 – Bench

The bench did not contribute to correcting the team’s results, which made the coach lose the ability to find alternative solutions to avoid the absences and injuries that befell the team, as well as a decline in the performance of some players.
