Historical coach Bora Milutinovic meets the Lebanese national team

Renowned Serbian coach Bora Milutinovic visited the Lebanese national football team's training camp in Doha, Qatar, where he met with their Montenegrin coach, Miodrag Radulovic, and his staff. Milutinovic's visit was prompted by his prior acquaintance and friendship with the "Men of the Cedars." Radulovic greatly appreciated the visit from one of the most important coaches in football history. Milutinovic seemed pleased to accompany the Lebanese team to their evening training session at the Al-Aqlah training grounds, expressing his admiration for the Lebanese players' efforts during the exercises. He noted their impressive physical abilities and their commitment to following their coach's instructions perfectly. The 79-year-old Milutinovic has enjoyed widespread international fame since the mid-1980s and into the new millennium. He is one of only two coaches, besides the famous Brazilian Carlos Alberto Parreira, to have coached in five World Cup tournaments. However, he distinguished himself by managing five different national teams in these five consecutive editions: Mexico in 1986, Costa Rica in 1990, the United States in 1994, and Nigeria in 1995. 1998, and China in 2002, noting that the Chinese national team, which he led for the first and last time in its history to the finals, was the only one that did not qualify under his supervision for the knockout stages of the World Cup, which earned him the title of "Miracle Factor". Bora paused in his side conversations during his visit to remember his time in Lebanon when he came to it with the Chinese national team during the 2000 Asian Cup, recalling the archaeological sites he visited, and what he experienced of the country's cultural and historical aspects.
