The Lebanese national team, led by former Montenegrin coach Miodrag Radulović, is warming up for the Asian Championship qualifiers, which start in March next year.
He is warming up with victories - the "conifers" celebrated today 2:1 against Kuwait, whose coach is the Argentinian Juan Antonio Pici, a former striker of Barcelona.
Kuwait took the lead through Bursele's goal in the 11th minute, El Zein equalized in the 77th, and 17-year-old Sami Merheg, a boy who plays in the First League of Colombia, gave Lebanon the win - just like last month against Myanmar.
For Radulović, who is assisted by compatriots Srđan Kljajević, Mileta Radulović and Nikola Vukčević, this is the fourth victory in the last six games, along with a draw and a loss.
Good prelude to the last round of qualifications, for which Lebanon received desirable rivals - Yemen, Bhutan and Burundi.
Radulović has already led Lebanon to two Asian Cups. Between two adventures at major competitions, he was the coach of Montenegro for three years, from 2020 to 2023.
