Palestine reveal Preliminary Asian Cup squad

National team manager Noureddine Ould Ali has revealed a preliminary list of 28 players that will travel to Qatar this week for a training camp.

The squad borrows heavily from the latest squad that beat Pakistan and drew China in November.

Four goalkeepers, 10 defenders, 10 midfielders, and 10 forwards will make the trip to Doha with the squad containing 12 players who ply their trade abroad.

There are some notable absences which are perhaps the result of the added competition for limited spots. Dalkurd's Ahmad Awad has been left out as has Al-Jazeera's Islam Batran.

Further up the pitch, Matías Jadue who scored on his debut back in June 2015 has missed out due to fitness concerns.

In a move that was widely rumored, Haitham Dheeb will miss out on the Asian Cup for the same reasons that caused him to miss the 2015 tournament.

Hilal Mousa one of the few true left footers has been overlooked in favor of the younger Oday Dabbagh.

Five players- one goalkeeper and four outfield pla…

23 Tickets to UAE 2019

There are less than 30 days remaining until Asia's best lock horns at the 2019 AFC Asian Cup in the UAE.

Palestine's second straight qualification for the tournament came in extremely different circumstances to the first. It might be taken for granted but that was a qualification campaign for the ages.

Palestine had an extremely convoluted route to Australia. The AFC had arbitrarily decided that half the continent could not enter the qualifying tournament. With Palestine left in the cold, their first attempt at qualification (the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup) fell short as they lost 2-0 to eventual champions Korea DPR in the semifinal.

Two years later, Jamal Mahmoud delivered the goods despite very little support from the Palestine Football Association. Mahmoud eventually left the post, but embarrassment and exposure to the continental showpiece convinced the PFA that investing in the national team was worthwhile.

The rejuvenation of the national team started with a changing of the…

FC Cincinnati's Nazmi Albadawi to play for Palestine

Palestine have added an interesting piece to their midfield puzzle by convincing Nazmi Albadawi to declare for the national team.
The North Carolina born midfielder has had an outstanding year for FC Cincinnati- notching 11 goals and 4 assists en route to a regular season USL Championship. FCC will join Major League Soccer- the American topflight- from the start of 2019 season.
"I couldn’t be happier to represent Palestine, I will give my all every single time I put the jersey on and hope to make all Palestinians proud." Albadawi told Football Palestine.
Albadawi normally plays behind the striker, and did so for the majority of this past season with Cincinnati FC. That said, he can also player deeper in midfield as he did for North Carolina FC when he set a NASL record for assists in a single season in 2016.
His versatility will give manager Noureddine Ould Ali tactical flexibility ahead of the 2019 AFC Asian Cup finals.

The 27 year old playmaker is expected to make hi…
