Abdulrahman said that he is not afraid of his foes and that he had also told his players to face the game with all they have got as they target a win and a place at the top.
“We are facing Pillars on Sunday. We know they are a dangerous side and we won’t take them for granted at all. I have told my players to approach the game with all they have got. I have also told them that a win would be of great help to us and they have promised me that they would try their best,” Abdulrahman told said.
