On January 13, Beijing time, the group stage of the Asian Cup officially kicked off, and the defending champion Qatar, ranked 58th in the world, sat at home to face Lebanon, ranked 107th in the world.
Soon after the start of the game, Qatari player Ali inserted the ball and single-handedly pushed the far corner to score, but the referee signaled offside in the first goal was invalid, and the team had an absolute advantage in possession, but the successive shots were cleared. Lebanon seized the counter-attack to create danger, and the opposing goalkeeper made a wonderful save to keep the goal intact.
Qatar looked difficult to break the game in the face of the bus defense for the time being, until the 45th minute Abdulisag received a cross from his teammates and headed the ferry, Ali returned the pass in the middle, and the follow-up Afif pushed into the net to break the deadlock. Throughout the half, there were not many wonderful shots of the two teams' dedication, and even the process was a little flat, and the strength was incomprehensible.
In the second half, Qatar continued to press, and in the 56th minute, Ward on the side made a precise cross, and Ali's header bounced into the net to expand the score. Lebanon defended well, but the team's attacking creativity was mediocre, and they struggled to organise dangerous chances.
In the final 96th minute of stoppage time, Afif scored another goal to end Qatar's 3-0 win over Lebanon in the opening game, as the hosts used a victory to start the team's journey in this Asian Cup, and they will next challenge for the top spot in the group and climb towards the goal of defending the title.
Another key match in Group A, China, ranked 79th in the world, against Tajikistan, ranked 106th, will be officially played at 22:30 pm on January 13.
