Morais Proud of Al Wahda to Handle Yadegar-e Emam Atmosphere
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Al Wahda coach Jose Morais felt his team competed well throughout the 90 minutes at the AFC Champions League Elite 2025-26 and the Portuguese was proud with how his side was able to handle the atmosphere at Yadegar-e-Imam Stadium in Tabriz.
The match ended in a goalless draw while two teams had created so many scoring chances.
“From the very first minute, there was a real fight between the two teams,” said Morais. “The pace of the game was very high, and the outcome was uncertain until the very last moment. In the end, I think justice was done, and the draw was fair.
"Fortunately, our defense performed well for most of the match, and we managed to stop Tractor’s attacks. They are a strong team who transition quickly from defense to attack. I must congratulate my players because they played very well.”
After back-to-back draws, Tractor will aim for a win when it faces UAE’s Sharjah FC on October 20 while Al Wahda hosts Al Duhail SC of Qatar on the same day.
