ABU DHABI // Abel Braga, the Al Jazira coach, is in no mood to relax after winning the last two games with injury-time goals. His side face Al Shaab tonight in the Etisalat Cup at the Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium and the Brazilian (left) said: "There is no room for errors in this competition. In my thinking, all teams are on level and those who make mistakes will have to pay." He added: "We were lucky to win the last two games and I do not fancy seeing that happen again."
Jazira beat Al Wasl and Al Khaleej in the cup opener with injury-time strikes. Shaab have had a poor season so far. They have lost all three league games and were held 1-1 by Wasl in the cup and Braga fears there could be a backlash. "They have had a poor run so far and that's all the reason we have to be careful," he said. "It is going to be another hard game but we are ready and have prepared well."
In the other game of the night Al Nasr travel to Ajman after a moral boosting 2-0 result over the Super League winners Al Ahli. Al Wahda coach Ahmed Abdulhaleem said the absence of players on duty with the national side will not hamper their chances over Al Dhafra, who they meet at the Al Nahyan Stadium tomorrow. He said: "No game is easy, but I'm confident we have the stuff to win three points at home."
