Ahli goalkeeper Amir Abdul-Hamid said his side will be under no pressure when they play in next month's FIFA Club World Cup. Many have tipped the African champions to improve on their third-place finish in the 2006 edition after clinching a record-breaking sixth Champions League title. With expectations being sky-high, Ahli may be forced to play under pressure in order to fulfill the lofty aims of their fans. But Abdul-Hamid has a different view. “Coach Manuel Jose told us to look for entertainment in Japan,” he told FilGoal.com on Friday. “Participating in the Club World Cup is a reward for our Champions League victory, so we must enjoy it.” However, the 29-year-old guardian insisted Ahli would be also looking to produce good results in the tournament. “We are fully aware that we have to play well in Japan and finish in a respectful position.” Abdul-Hamid has become Ahli's first-choice goalie since the abrupt departure of Egyptian international Essam Al-Hadari in April. He is gradually gaining the fans' trust, who vowed to help him become even better than Al-Hadari. “I'm in a relaxed mood. The fans trust me and are ready to forgive me for any uncommon blunder.”
