Mohammed Abu Al-Shamat, a player for the Saudi national team, emphasized that the ambition of the Green Falcons players is entirely focused on winning the Arab Cup, which kicked off today in the Qatari capital, Doha, amid a large crowd of spectators.

The Saudi national team will begin its participation in the tournament with a tough match against the Oman national team tomorrow at the Education City Stadium, marking the team's first real test under the leadership of their French coach Hervé Renard.

Abu Al-Shamat explained in statements to Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper that the Green team has a group of prominent players and a high-level coach, emphasizing that the team is strongly aiming to win the title and bring joy to the Saudi fans.

The player also touched on the Saudi national team's participation as a second-tier team in the previous edition, emphasizing that all players represent the country with the same enthusiasm, and that a lack of luck was the reason for the team's early exit at that time.

Abu Al-Shamat added that the Green team players enter every match with the sole goal of winning, noting that the tournament represents a significant challenge that requires the team to focus and work together to reach the final.

The player affirmed his respect for all the teams participating in the Arab Cup, but he emphasized that the Saudi national team's focus is on following the coach's instructions and working on improving performance at every stage.

Abu Al-Shamat concluded his statements by promising the fans that the national team will fight to win the title, calling for support and encouragement throughout Al-Akhdar's journey in the tournament, which includes a group with Oman, the Comoros Islands, and Morocco.
