Omar Abdulrahman of UAE and Massimo Luongo of Australia share the cover of The National’s sport section for the Tuesday, September 6 issue.
The two will meet when their teams contest a 2018 World Cup qualifying match at the Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium tonight in the capital. The Emiratis are already buzzing after their 2-1 shock win in Japan last week, and out to consolidate their gains – a victory would put them in a commanding early position to punch a ticket to Russia 2018.
John McAuley outlines the four keys for the UAE to beat Australia.
