00:00to keep their success going as they continue to build up to the 2022 world cup on home soil
00:05and japan to get us under a way kicking from right to left in that electric blue dark blue
00:12and mix of blue colored shirt dark shorts and light blue socks kataka it's over the top and
00:20it's a lovely little ball japan are in here that's a great save from albacri but the flag has gone
00:26up
00:28offside against rayo hatate
00:32great chance created there by tanaka lovely ball over the top
00:37a good save by muhammad albac has nothing doing and here comes japan once again soma
00:44against homan feels he's got the beat of a little cross comes in towards and it's going to fall oh
00:50and he's completely fluffed the chance rio hatate the best opening of the match you'd have to say
00:57oh look to fall to him perfectly and he completely misses his shot well headed back across goal and
01:05just as he was coming to make the strike he'll be hoping to get it in before they've delayed it
01:11the
01:11ball is played over the top by soma that's a lovely first touch it's a ball so close expected the
01:17net to
01:17bulge from shunta tanaka and that would have put the seal on a fantastic first half performance from
01:23the japanese number seven lovely first touch looks and it's perhaps an opportunity for qatar
01:29but they over elaborate and the chance has gone well done with by japan referee muhammad taki coming over to
01:36check for a potential red card this will be interesting to see what this could be
01:42he's going over to check the monitor let's see i'm not even sure who this is potential red card for
01:49but this could change the outcome of the match if he decide
01:55plenty of replays are going to slow it down now wins possession there i think that would have been
02:00extremely harsh if that had been given as a red card the referee seems to be pretty happy with
02:07everything
02:11the ar check is over oh no he's calling him over no it might be wrong here could be completely
02:16wrong
02:16is he gonna say he sent him off it is unbelievable it is a straight red for al tanaka it
02:22looked like
02:23there wasn't a great al tanaka is devastated that seems particularly harsh in my humble opinion he took
02:31the ball and his studs continue to roll over the top of it on zoo you said the halftime interval
02:38will be qatar with a free kick the ball is played forward but it is wasteful and that largely sums
02:45up the
02:45qatari performance in the opening 45 minutes plus and the ref used that red card chance now for qatar
02:54that's high wide sanchez has his head in his hands a spanish coach of qatar not very happy with his
03:01well out there to oh man ahmed and his cross does find oh it's a terrible miss it looked like
03:09the ball
03:09was drifting out of play it was just kept in over the crossbar by nasa al-arac might have been
03:17touching
03:17go whether that actually was kept in time starts to or time keeps dwindling down
03:26here's machina again ogawa gets to strike it
03:29he's scored
03:36didn't seem an awful lot of pace and power on the shot it was bubbling its way maybe he was
03:41a little
03:41short set uh blindsided or didn't take a deflection we'll soon see a slide now in wild now with
03:49possession he's going to line up for a strike he goes for it it's just about dealt with by keisuke
03:54osaka both goalkeepers being called into action one found wanting the other less so
04:01wasn't a completely complete with it all to do
04:05it's uh
04:07and here's mazid who's been lively since coming on looking to create something still has it and it's
04:12another shot in for muhammad wad
04:17and here's mazid one more time oh nice feet for all he chased tripped just as he was about to
04:25strike
04:25the ball muhammad taki still listening to the var official manning and we're having a look here
04:32this is the replay it does look like his foot was caught just as he's about abdullah al-arac up
04:40against keisuke osaka al-arac scores it's one a piece katar one japan buried just yet
04:51here's a replay of the incident in question khalid mazid ankle being clipped
04:58abdullah al-arac putting that one in the corner a lovely penalty actually hitting the
05:04it was played over the top al-bacri will sweep things up and the final whistle has been blown
05:11it has finished at bangkok's rajamangala stadium katar won japan won the opening goal from koki
