For the national football team, although they did not get a good start, they still have the initiative to advance to the knockout rounds. After all, in the group stage, not only the top two can qualify, but the four third-placed teams with the best results can also advance to the knockout rounds. So as long as we win Lebanon next, the probability of advancement will double.
The national football team will face Lebanon in the next round, which is on January 17. The national football team does not have much time to rest and prepare. This game cannot be lost. Once lost, it will be one point in two rounds and the strongest Qatar will end the match.
