Basim Qasim steps down from Al Zawraa coaching after disappointing league results

In light of the recent turmoil and disappointing results that have plagued the team, veteran coach Basim Qasim has officially resigned from his position at Al Zawraa. This decision comes after the team's heavy defeat, losing three goals to nil against Duhok, prompting the club's management to embark on a challenging search for a new leader to take charge in these exceptionally difficult circumstances.

Bassem Qassem has taken charge of Al Zawraa in the Iraq Stars League this season to double ambitions, having led the team in 13 official matches, with the following numerical yield:

The team achieved 6 wins, 4 draws, and suffered 3 notable defeats against Duhok, Al-Shamal, and Al-Police. The team's attack, under his guidance, scored 17 goals, while the defense conceded on 12 occasions.

However, on the external front in the Gulf Club Champions League, Bassem Qassem has played 3 matches with Al Zawraa without tasting victory, settling for the following results:

The team suffered one defeat against Al-Nasr SC, drew two matches against Qatar SC and Al-Riffa, scored two goals, and conceded three.

Bassem Qassem's resignation adds to the pressures and challenges facing Al-Nasr SC at a very critical time; the management is racing against time to find a new head coach with the experience and strong personality capable of reorganizing the team, regulating the dressing room dynamics, and pulling the club out of the negative results spiral before it's too late.
