2-1! 103 minutes of stunning! The first qualifying team of the Asian Cup was born, and it was the defeated player of the Chinese team
The second round of the group stage of the U23 Asian Cup continues, and the host Qatar team faces the challenge of the Jordanian team. With substitute Manet's 103rd minute goal, Qatar won 2-1 against Jordan, successfully won two consecutive victories, and locked a ticket to the top 8 one round in advance!
As the host of this year's U23 Asian Cup, the Qatar team also came with the goal of entering the Olympic Games. In the first round of the group stage, Qatar won 2-0 against Indonesia with two more players and got off to a good start. Facing the Jordan team in this round, as long as the Qatar team can beat the opponent, they will be able to break through one round earlier and become the first team to advance to the top 8 in this tournament!
In the 40th minute, the Qatar team played a series of exquisite combinations, Saba took the ball on the side and went straight to the inserted Yazidi, who hit a wonderful world wave from a small angle, and the ball flew into the goal from the near corner, and the Qatar team took the lead to break the deadlock and take a 1-0 lead. In the 47th minute, Jordanian player Taha was kicked down in the penalty area, and the referee did not give a penalty at first, but after the video referee reminded him outside the field, he watched the video back, and then made a change and gave the Jordanian team a penalty. It was by taking advantage of this penalty opportunity that the Jordanian team successfully equalized the score!
After the equaliser, the morale-boosting Jordan team launched a couple of very dangerous attacks, but fortunately, Qatari goalkeeper Al-Baliyad performed well, making a series of wonderful saves and not conceding again. Just when everyone thought that the game would end in a draw, the situation changed again on the field. In the 13th minute of injury time, the Qatar team took advantage of a set-piece opportunity in front of the field, and the substitute striker Manet scored another goal to complete the stunner at the last moment, helping the Qatar team defeat the Jordan team 2-1 and get the knockout round ticket one round ahead of schedule!
Before the start of this U23 Asian Cup, the Qatar team had a warm-up match with the Chinese men's football team. In that game, the Chinese team completely controlled the initiative of the game, with the goals of Liang Shaowen and Bai Helamu, the Chinese team won 2-0 against the Qatar team, ending the previous warm-up game losing streak. However, it was the defeat of the Chinese men's football team that won consecutive victories in the main match and advanced to the top 8 one round ahead of schedule. On the other hand, if the Chinese team wants to break through from the group stage, I am afraid we can only hope for a miracle!
