Al Duhail have no weak points: Branko Ivankovic

Tehran Times – DOHA, Iran’s Persepolis coach Branko Ivankovic could not spot a weak point in Qatar’s Al Duhail football team.

The Iranian giants will meet the Qatari powerhouse on Tuesday at the Khalifa International Stadium in the AFC Champions League (ACL) quarter-final first leg.

“In this stage of the AFC Champions League, there is no a weak team. All teams are strong. We know Al Duhail very well and have met them in the past,” Ivankovic said in the pre-match news conference.

“Al Duhail have new good players but we will do our best to get a good result against them. We’ve analyzed Al Duhail to find their weak points but I have to say they have no weak points,” the Croat added.

“We have not been permitted to sign new player in two transfer windows but I believe in my players. I think we can get a result with our current players,” the Persepolis coach stated.

“We know that Persepolis will face a strong team but will fight until the final whistle for our goals,” Ivankovic concluded.
