The national football team will conclude its training sessions today in preparation for its second friendly match during the current FIFA international break, which sees it face Honduras tomorrow at the Al-Sadaqua Walsalam Stadium in Kazma Club. The Blue Team played its first match of this camp last Friday evening, securing a 3-0 victory over Syria in a strong and beneficial encounter for the players under the guidance of Portuguese manager Helio Sousa, who gave opportunities to several young players to gain experience and the necessary exposure from such fixtures.

The Honduran national team played a friendly earlier this week against the UAE in Abu Dhabi, which ended in a 3-1 win for the Emirates. The visiting team then arrived in Kuwait late yesterday and held its first training session yesterday at the Mohammed Al-Hamad Stadium in Kazma Club before concluding its preparations today at the same venue ahead of the match.

Sousa and his coaching staff are aiming for another victory with the Blue Team during this camp, following their impressive performance against Syria, where the team displayed strong mental and technical presence from both starters and substitutes.

The Blue Team’s squad appears complete, with all available players from Sousa’s list present, following the exclusion of Mohammed Daham and the continued monitoring of Mohammed Al-Huwaidi’s condition by the Union’s medical director, Dr. Abdulmajid Al-Banna. Meanwhile, Qadsia goalkeeper Saud Al-Qana’i was called up to join the Blue Team’s squad before the previous match against Syria.

A press conference will be held today featuring the managers of both teams: Helio Sousa, coach of the Blue Team, and Spanish manager Jose Francisco Molina, who took charge of the Honduran national team last June and has led them in seven matches, recording one win against Jamaica in September, four losses, and two draws.
