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.
