The stewards' strike brought to a halt the games of the penultimate round of the Yemeni top-flight football clubs scheduled for Tuesday in the cities of Sana 'a and Sayoun.


Hadramawt's Tdamn team and Sama'un Al-Shahr were supposed to play at the Olympic Stadium in Sayoun in Group I games. The teams attended the stadium, but the refusal of the judges to act and insisted on striking.


Similarly, the match that would have brought together both the Salam Al Qarfa Team and his counterpart Shab Hadramawt, in Sana 'a, was stopped for the same reason.


It is not known when the games will be played and whether the fate of tomorrow's games will be the same or not.


On Monday evening, the referees raised the white flag in the face of the Yemeni Football Association; as a result of the non-payment of their financial dues.


On various occasions, Fédération officials complained about their limited government resources but in return received financial support from FIFA, which recently published a report on the support of the world's sports federations, including Yemen, indicating that it had provided Fédération Yemen with $7 million.

When Football Was Heard, Not Seen

By Mareb Al-Ward Since my childhood, football had found its way into my heart in a way that’s hard to describe. I didn’t first come to know it through stadiums or clubs, but rather through the television screen — through Japanese anime that filled us with passion and the spirit of competition. And that unforgettable series — Captain Tsubasa — was the spark that lit it all. I watched it with eyes glowing with dreams, as if I were living inside it — running, celebrating, and grieving with every scene. From there, my love for football began to take root deep within me, becoming part of my daily life: beside the house, in the alleys of our neighborhood, and later on the school playground, especially during middle school. One of the things I loved most was accompanying my father on his weekly trips to the city for shopping. Sometimes I went after much pleading, and sometimes when he saw me sad, he decided to cheer me up by taking me along. We used to travel in a Toyota Land Cruiser fro...

By Mareb Al-ward Etihad Ibb team Etihad IBB is a football sports club based in IBB city of the same name, founded in 1992 after the merged of Al-Fatwa and Al Salam clubs, two old clubs that grew up in the sixties and seventies respectively. Since then, the team has been competing in the league of top-flight clubs except for some periods in which they drop back to the second-tier for financial reasons and poor results. The Etihad is known for its "Eagles" title in a sign of strength and ferocity in various competitions in which it participates at the local and external levels. Some analysts describe the club as a source of football talent that other clubs benefit more than because of its weak financial resources that do not allow it to maintain stars and give them proper pay. Many of these players have become local and national stars such as Abdulsalam al-Gharbani, Fakri al-Habishi, Fazal al-Arumi and others. Although the team has done well in some seasons, it has not achieved...
