It was the fi fth defeat for the Al An- nabi, who now languish at the bottom of the six-team group on just four points from seven matches, and even the prospect of fi nishing third in the group now appear remote. Jorge Fossati’s side were hoping for a miracle after a 1-0 defeat to Iran last week in Doha had left them with the near-impossible task of having to win their next four matches in order to challenge the top guns in the group. But a sensational Odil Akhmedov free-kick in the 65th minute, the ball crashing low into the net after curv- ing around the “wall”, put paid to Qa- tar’s hopes at the same time giving the Uzbeks a decent chance of fi nish- ing second in the group and qualify- ing for the tournament proper for the fi rst-ever time.
