00:00.
00:07Afif almost getting that one over the top.
00:11Alvedi with the header away, and now a great chance for Qatar.
00:14Edmilsson Jr. foiled by Kubar.
00:20There's a feeling there from Edmilsson Jr. that he may not get such a good opportunity again.
00:24That was a real mistake right at the heart of a very experienced Switzerland defense.
00:36Dan Andoy, excellent save.
00:40Abunada getting down low and able to prevent that effort from Andoy.
00:48The debate about who starts in goal quickly answered there from Qatar's point of view.
00:53Abunada down to his right-hand side, really good break.
00:56A defensive mix-up which opens the gap for Dan Andoy.
00:59It's a really strong strike.
01:07I can't believe it at all.
01:09Central defenders are all up hoping to get on the end of it.
01:25Zachariah, teasing cross into the middle. Is it going to be touched through? Is that a penalty?
01:29What does the referee say? He says spot kick. Foul by Abunada.
01:56And while the goalkeeper received treatment, let's have another look again.
02:00Is there a possible offside there in the middle?
02:16It's Emberlo. And it's run away from Switzerland.
02:27They said they wanted to make an early breakthrough and they have done exactly that.
02:36Let's see.
02:55Let's go.
03:00They'll be in the middle of it.
03:06And we've got a problem here for one of the Qatari players.
03:15Xhaka, Abbasher, drives it across.
03:20That is a corner.
03:36Chance, Ed Milson Jr. with the effort, and Kubal puts it behind.
03:52And Doy, who's moved across to that left-hand side, with Vargas now on the right, Abbasher.
03:59And Doy, another excellent save from Abunada.
04:12Embelo, lovely to the ball back, and just the wrong side of the post from Vargas.
04:28Royner, almost getting in behind.
04:30And below, picking up possession.
04:32Super chance to head off the line.
04:51The three central defenders just ahead of the penalty spot.
04:56Bargas.
04:58Again, it's away from Hukki.
05:00Bargas once more.
05:03Driven in from distance, and it wasn't too far over.
05:08What an effort that was.
05:11Such a delicious strike of a football, isn't it, Gvanic Xhaka?
05:13He's got a little bit of arrowing towards what seemingly was the Qatar crossbar.
05:21And we go. Player number 11, Don Endoy, is replaced by number 9, Johan Manzambi.
05:30Certainly a player that a lot of people are getting very excited about, aren't they, Manzambi?
05:34Real discovery over the last 12 months or so.
05:36Now on the biggest stage to show everybody what he can do.
05:41Very used to coming on as a substitute.
05:43He came on as a substitute in five of Switzerland's six qualifying fixtures.
05:57We're going to have periods like this where it is rather slow,
06:00but then Switzerland will suddenly increase the tempo.
06:06Vargas trying to take on Miguel.
06:07Miguel, floated in, and it was curling, but always just from Granit Xhaka, curling away from goal.
06:15Really good ball, wasn't it? Glorious left foot of his just caressing it with pace into such a dangerous area.
06:23One of his teammates really knowing whereabouts he wanted the ball to go.
06:30Anzambi the man tracking him all the way into the box.
06:33It does feel like there's a bit more impetus though from Qatar after that hydration break.
06:38Vargas bearing down on goal, Vargas!
06:43Abunada again to the rescue for Qatar.
06:54Nurek Yakin said he was wary of his team losing momentum after the hydration break.
07:04Manzambi, brilliant, just wide from Mambolo.
07:31Manzambi will go for goal!
07:33Go for goal!
07:40It's a wonderful, laconic way, hasn't he, of receiving a football and driving forward.
07:47Between himself and Amdoon, he plays fresh onto the pitch.
07:52Yashari, also player number 13, El Mune.
08:01Can he turn and shoot? He can.
08:04Ahmed, Al-Eldi.
08:30Decent ball in and it's headed in!
08:33Bulem Hukie!
08:37What an ending!
08:40It was a superb cross in and Hukie was on the end of it to make it 1-1 with
08:46just seconds left.
08:48What a moment! What a moment!
08:53It's the FIFA World Cup in all of its glory. The jeopardy was always there when the scoreline was only
08:571-0.
08:59Chance after chance after chance when begging for Switzerland.
09:03Qatar do not mind one bit.
09:07Every single member of the staff open off the bench.
09:12Maybe an element of injury here given the ferocity of the celebration.
09:16It's a wonderful ball into the box. It's a big, hanging, powerful header.
09:24And he has done!
09:28What a finish to this Group B match!
09:31And all four teams in Group B as a result now have one point.
09:36Braille Mbelo with a first half penalty for Switzerland.
09:39They had so much possession, so many chances, but couldn't take it.
09:44And Bulem Hukie's late equaliser means it has finished.
09:47Qatar won, Switzerland won!
09:49Iran won!
09:50.
