Jorge Fossati’s side had swatted away all comers to dethrone Lekhwiya in the Qatar Stars League with much to spare, but ever since that they seem to have completely lost the plot, lurching from one defeat to another. So much so that they failed to win any of their fi ve remaining matches in the QSL, and yesterday their jinx continued in the four-team Qatar Cup when their defi ciencies were thoroughly exposed by Djamel Belmadi’s Lekhwiya. Lekhwiya were clinical after the break and were 3-0 up before Rayyan got a late consolation from Nathan. In truth, the opening 45 minutes were tight and tetchy as both teams looked for a foothold in the tie. Lekhwi- ya looked the better side in the open- ing exchanges, controlling the ball and making the most of the few chances they carved open.
