Al Ain move opening league and cup games

Al Ain: The Pro League Committee accepted a request from Al Ain to move the club’s first Arabian Gulf Cup match against Hatta (September 4) and opening Arabian Gulf League game against Al Wasl (September 16) from the Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium to the Khalifa Bin Zayed Stadium, on Tuesday.

Al Ain had requested the change due to renovation works taking place at the Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium in preparation for its hosting of the Fifa Club World Cup to be held in the UAE from December 6-16 this year.
