Bogor: Victorious Turki Al Ammar revealed his satisfaction at leading his side to the AFC U-19 Championship Indonesia 2018 title, as Saudi Arabia's budding star was named the tournament's Most Valuable Player.
The attacking midfielder lived up to head coach Khalid Abdullah Atawi's pre-tournament challenge to win the coveted accolade, after he helped his side win the competition for the first time since 1992.
Al Ammar's award completes a rare and impressive double for the Al Shabab youngster, who was also voted the Saudi Pro League Young Player of the Season earlier in 2018.
Earlier in the tournament, Al Ammar revealed Atawi had set him the challenge of becoming the competition's best player and the 19-year-old said he was delighted to have achieved the goal.
