2022 World Cup hosts Qatar stun Japan in Asian Cup final

01 Feb, 2019

Almoez Ali scored a record ninth goal of the competition as Qatar led 2-0 at half-time, before they conceded for the first time in the tournament as Japan threatened a comeback.

But a video review saw Japan captain Maya Yoshida penalised for handball and Akram Afif calmly restored the two-goal cushion as Qatar earned the biggest win in their history.
