UAE national football team trained at New York University ahead of Asian Cup


The UAE national football team trained at New York University in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday night ahead of their Asian Cup opener against Bahrain on Saturday.

The hosts, who have been drawn with Bahrain, India and Thailand in Group A, are without their star man - the injured playmaker Omar Abdulrahman.

But they will have pleasant memories from the previous edition of the continental competition in Australia where they reached the semi-finals before being knocked out by the home team and eventual champions.
