Al Rawi the Hero As Qatar Reach Quarters SPORT Wednesday 23 January 2019 PAGE | 08 PAGE | 10 Indian skipper Ruthless Nadal Virat Kohli cruises into sweeps top last four of ICC awards Australian Open AFC Asian Cup: Al Annabi defeat former champions Iraq 1-0 Al Rawi the hero as Qatar reach quarters THE PENINSULA / AFC ABU DHABI Qatari players celebrate after Bassam Al Rawi scored a goal during their AFC Asian Cup Round of 16 match against Iraq, played at the Al Nahyan Stadium, in Abu Dhabi, yesterday. A superbly struck free-kick by Bassam Al Rawi yesterday guided Qatar into the last- eight of the AFC Asian Cup quarter-finals. Al Rawi produced the match-winner in the 62nd minute with a free kick that dipped in ate to beat goalkeeper Jalal Hassan Hachem as Qatar stunned the 2007 cham- pions 1-0 at Al Nahyan Stadium in Abu Dhabi. It was the fourth successive win for Qatar, coached by Felix Sanchez. Qatar, who topped Group E, beat Lebanon, North Korea and Saudi Arabia before edging past a determined Iraq yesterday. In the quarter-final on Friday, Qatar will take on Korea who yesterday beat Bahrain in the round of 16. Despite Iraq’s industrious start to the game, it was Qatar who spurned the first genuine opportunity when 2018 AFC Player of the Year Abdelkarim Hassan rattled the bar with a shot from close-range following Abdelaziz Hatim’s cross in only the fourth minute. As Qatar continued to press in the opening stages, a well-placed Hatim came close to connecting with Hasan’s whipped delivery, only for goalkeeper Saad Al Sheeb to then dive bravely at the feet of an onrushing Mohanad Ali to repel Iraq’s opening attack of the tie. Iraq suffered a blow shortly after the half-hour mark as influential midfielder Humam Tareq left the pitch on a stretcher, although an Ahmed Ibrahim header which forced Al Sheeb into a smart save subse- quently demonstrated the threat still posed by Srecko Katanec’s charges.
