Ahmed Sabri, one of the sports analysts, praised the performance of Iraqi national team player Ibrahim Bayesh in the match against Hong Kong during the King of Thailand friendly cup, describing his appearance as "excellent and enjoyable".

Sabri said: "Ibrahim Bayesh was excellent and enjoyable today, and the most notable thing is that he is not bothered by changing his position on the field; that's a skill in itself."

He pointed to the player's ability to adapt to different tactical positions and his flexibility in performance, which enhances the technical options for the national team coaching staff led by Graham Arnold.

He added: "Such performance gives the Iraqi national team a greater ability to control the midfield and impose the style of play desired by the coach, especially in preparatory matches like the King of Thailand Cup, which is an important opportunity to test both core and reserve elements alike."
