Qatar to take on Yemen as AFC U-16 qualifiers kick off on Wednesday
DOHA, September 20, 2017-The Qatari U16 football team will begin their campaign in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U-16 Championship Group E qualifiers with a match against Yemen on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Qatar coach Miguel Medina says his boys are ready for the qualifying campaign. “This will be the first time these boys will be playing in a major international competition. It's a strong group for this generation of players," said Medina yesterday.
“We've played Yemen during an U14 tournament in Saudi Arabia in 2013. We know their strength and we'll be ready for them. As the current team has new generation of players, we're looking for the future. We want to continue with the good results shown by our U23 team in July," added the Spaniard.
The Qatari side had started their preparations for the event earlier in July where they played four friendly matches.
