Abdelkarim Hassan: This win is a gift for Xavi

Al-Sadd star Abdelkarim Hassan dedicated the side’s 4-2 win over Al-Shahaniya to head coach Xavi as his birthday gift.

In his remarks after the match, Abdelkarim said: “The win is a gift for Xavi on his birthday.”

On the defensive mistakes committed by the team, he said: “There is no defect in the defence line, but it is was only some players being lax and not coming into the game with full focus at the beginning. This is what we will work on during the next matches.”
