hello Friendly match confirmed Saudi Arabia Vs. Poland date : 29-3-2006 place : RIYADH, Saudi Arabia stadium : King Fahd international
^^ Yeah I was just about to say...Seeing the KSA team today I dont think this will be an EZ game for them, no matter how much noise the crowd makes. KSA needs to start playing games outside of their 'turf'. This would definetly help them in the long run.
Well, if compare Poland with rest of the European teams then Poland is the weakest among all. In order to play well against Spain and especially Ukraine, Saudi-Arabia must play against France as France couldn't beat Ukraine in their last 2 meetings and they were also defeated by the Spanish in a friendly by a single margin. Moreover, if Saudis cannot play France than atleast they should play against Turkey as Turkey beat Ukraine in Ukraine. As far as Spain is considered, Saudis should play Serbia & Mont. or Bosnia & Herzigovina. Well, playing against Poland would not reflect much but still, for their own benefit, Saudis should play friendlies against teams similar to Spain & Ukraine. They should also play against the team who beat Tunisia in the qualifying round, i am not sure but I think it was Guinea that beat Tunisia 1-0 in the qualifying round. Saudis must prepare hard and well, as their Argentine coach is not with them now and the new coach seems to be too relax.
