Assistant coach of Al-Zawraa team Hussam Fawzi confirmed his team's readiness to face Al-Minaa in the match that brings the two teams together as part of the eighth round of the Iraqi Stars League competition, stressing the importance of focus and securing the three points to compensate for the previous setback.

Fawzi said: "We fully respect Al-Minaa team and its technical staff. It is an organized team that has been delivering impressive performances this season and has players capable of making a difference at any moment."

He added: "We have closely followed several Al-Minaa matches and identified a number of technical points that we will work to exploit during the match. On the other hand, we have focused on correcting mistakes made in some previous matches."

He continued: "We have completely turned the page on the Al-Nasr match and benefited from the mistakes that accompanied it, whether defensively or in transitions. This experience will make us more prepared in the upcoming stage."

Fawzi confirmed: "Tomorrow's match is very important for us, and our goal is clear: to achieve the three points, especially since we are playing on our home ground and in front of our fans, which gives us additional motivation to deliver a great match."
