Al Khor, Qatar – In a match that saw two “home” teams face off at Al Bayt Stadium with huge support for the visitors, it was the form and the experience of hosts Qatar that helped them see off a spirited display from Palestine and book a place in the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup 2023 with a 2-1 win.
The defending champions went into the round-of-16 fixture on Monday under the weight of expectations of a passionate home crowd and on the back of an impressive display in the group stage.
