Al-Abed said to the “In the Goal” program: Coach Herve Renard’s call made me leave Al Hilal and move to Al Shabab in search of playing opportunities, and the recent AFC Champions League came and opened the doors for me to return to the international list following an absence.

And he continued: “Renard told me in a call, “He forced me to bring you into the national team once more.” And when he did not take me with the squad that participated in the last camp in the summer, I felt that he wanted to test my reaction, but I had replaced the negatives in my life into positives, and I became more mature. than before.
He concluded: I lived a very difficult period following the surgery, cried a lot and hit the TV, and when I found out that I was joining the national team once more, I felt that I was living the happiest days of my life.
