The UAE Football Team Should Watch this Video from Barcelona FC
The UAE Football Team is down and out after failing to qualify for the World Cup.
The players are probably licking their wounds if not their lips after too much fast foodslowed down their performance against Iran last week.
Looking forward, they might well think of how they might get a vision for winning in the future by learning from champion team, Barcelona.
Josep “Pep” Guardiola wanted to help his FC Barcelona players to visualize winning the final Champions League match against Manchester United. Before the match he showed his team this video he made together with Catalonian TV. The video shows the best moments of the season and mixes them with gladiator scenes and the soundtrack of the movie.
