UAEFA warns clubs after Al Ain’s refereeing criticism following pro league opener

The UAE Football Association has warned clubs against publicly criticizing referees, following Al Ain’s complaints after their 2-1 win over Al Bataeh. Legal action will be taken against those who undermine officials. Al Ain’s coach claimed five goals were disallowed, while the match featured the Pro League’s 9,000th goal and debuted a new stadium cooling system.
