RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s national team continued their preparations for the FIFA World Cup on Wednesday. Coach Herve Renard oversaw a practice session at their base in Abu Dhabi. A noticeable absentee was team captain Salman Al-Faraj, who was allowed to travel back to the Kingdom after the death of a relative. Salem Al-Dosari, who started all games for the Green Falcons in the last world cup in Russia, continues his rehabilitation work. Yasser Al-Shahrani is in Riyadh for a pre-prepared treatment program and Sultan Al-Ghannam and Nasser Al-Dosari have already traveled to Qatar for treatment at the Aspetar Center in Doha. Abdullah Mado did not practice because he was ordered to rest due to a health concern.
