German Matthias Jaissle, head coach of Al-Ahli Jeddah, emphasized the difficulty of today's match against Al-Fayha, pointing out that the team's primary goal was to capitalize on available opportunities. Al-Ahli players managed to secure a 2-0 victory in the eleventh round of the Roshn Saudi Professional League.

Jaissle explained the reason behind the substitution of midfielder Matheus, saying: "The change of Matheus was aimed at refreshing the squad and giving Saleh Abu Al-Shamat a chance to participate," stressing that all decisions were carefully considered to make the best use of the available players during the match.

The German coach also addressed the absence of some influential players like Rogerio Ibanez, stating: "The absence of an important element like Rogerio complicates matters, and we are also suffering from the absence of players called up for African national teams. Of course, the red card was undeserved," noting that the focus is now on preparing for the upcoming match against Al-Nassr.

Jaissle concluded the press conference by emphasizing the importance of readiness for the Al-Nassr match, saying: "We won't have many options, but we will try to select the ready players in the best possible way. I have great confidence that the crowd's presence will have a positive impact on the team on the field."
