KUALA LUMPUR, 14 Jun (Bernama) -- Jurulatiah Kelantan Bojan Hodak berkata pertemuan dengan pasukan Arbil dari Iraq pada suku akhir Piala Konfederasi Bolasepak Asia (AFC) antara yang paling sukar beliau mengendalikan musim ini.

Jurulatih dari Croatia itu berkata kebimbangan utamanya adalah jarak perjalanan ke negara itu sehingga boleh menyebabkan pemainnya mengalami keletihan.

"Arbil merupakan salah satu pasukan utama dalam saingan dan mereka memenangi perlawanan mereka dengan konsisten dan saya pasti ia satu cabaran besar bagi kami,"katanya kepada pemberita selepas undian timbal balik perlawanan suku akhir di Rumah AFC di Bukit Jalil, di sini, hari Khamis.

Kelantan:
Kelantan's Croatian coach Bojan Hodak has deemed the quarter-final tie
against Arbil as one of the most difficult the Malaysian side could
have got, with the AFC Cup debutants facing a long trip to Iraq to face
the 2011 semi-finalists.

Speaking to www.the-afc.com Hodak, who led the Red Warriors to a 3-2
defeat of Malaysian rivals Terengganu 3-2 in the Round of 16, said:

“There were two reasons I would have liked to avoid Arbil; the first
one is the travelling distance as travelling from here (Kota Bharu) to
Arbil requires lots of time and there will be fatigue concern and the
other is a pure sporting reason,” he said.

“Arbil is one of the top teams remaining in this competition, I know
they have been winning their matches on regular basis and I am sure
going there in Iraq and playing against Arbil will be a tough challenge
for us.

“However, this is a good opportunity for my boys to go to West and
play a team as good as Arbil and get exposure. Malaysian football is
going up and we need to make sure that we can play football all over
Asia not only in this regio so we will see how it goes."

The former Phnom Penh Crown coach also revealed that at the moment, he has no clear idea of Arbil technically.

“We will probably see handful of videos of Arbil playing and make our strategy,” he added.

Kelantan will play the first leg on September 18 while they entertain
the Iraqis one week later at Sultan Mohammed IV Stadium in Kota Bharu.
