Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Qatar and Switzerland get this one started.
  • 5' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 15' Yusuf Abdurisag is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Switzerland tonight.
  • 16' That looks like a foul for a card for Mahmoud Abunada.
  • 17' Breel Embolo does the damage! The net is bulging and Switzerland surge ahead!
  • 22' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ruben Vargas made 6 appearances and scored 31 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 23' A meaty challenge results in booking for Jassem Gaber Abdulsallam on 23.
  • 28' Boualem Khoukhi, a Qatar , has 1 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 33' The travelling Switzerland supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 38' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 42' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Denis Zakaria.
  • 47' With 0 assists to his name this season, Akram Afif is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Switzerland.
  • 52' Qatar started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 52.
  • 57' Qatar seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 60' A change in the Qatar ranks — Ayoub Al-Oui exits the field as Ahmed Fathy enters on 60.
  • 65' Switzerland ring the changes. Michel Aebischer has done his job and it is now time for Johan Manzambi to step up.
  • 66' Fabian Rieder gets the nod from Switzerland. He replaces Dan Ndoye and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 71' The home supporters are growing impatient. Qatar must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 76' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 79' The whistle greets Ruben Vargas as he departs to be replaced by Zeki Amdouni.
  • 84' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 88' Fresh legs for Qatar! Hassan Al Haydos comes on to replace Edmilson.
  • 89' A tactical swap from Switzerland — Miro Muheim on, Ricardo Rodriguez off on 89 minutes.
  • It finishes all square. Qatar and Switzerland share the spoils 1-1.
