Today at 19:15, the UAE junior national team will play a strong confrontation against the Croatia national team at the “Aspire Zone No. 4” stadium, in the second round of the third group competitions in the U-17 World Cup finals (Qatar 2025), in a match in which the “White Juniors” seek to achieve their first victory in the tournament, and enhance their chances of qualifying to the next round.

The team enters the match in high spirits, after drawing 1-1 in the opening round against Costa Rica, after the players performed well throughout the two halves of the match.

The technical staff seeks to build on the positives that appeared in the first match, while correcting some defensive aspects and improving offensive effectiveness, in light of the team’s readiness and confidence in its ability to provide a strong performance against a European competitor distinguished by physical and tactical discipline.

On the other hand, the Croatian national team enters the match after a goalless draw with Senegal in the first round, which makes today’s match important for the two teams in order to enhance their chances of qualifying from the third group, which includes the UAE, Croatia, Costa Rica and Senegal.

The “White Juniors” will conclude their campaign in the group stage by facing Senegal, next Sunday, in a match that may be decisive towards qualifying for the round of 32 of the tournament.
