Doha, Qatar: Captain Zaid Faisal scored a brace as Qatar blanked Mongolia 2-0 in their opening 2025 AFC U-17 Asian Cup Qualifiers match at Aspire Academy Pitch 7 yesterday.
The Ahmed Madouni-coached side dominated the match right from the start and could have won by a bigger margin but Mongolia showed resilient defense.
Zaid opened the scoring in a spectacular fashion as he beautifully connected Tamim Al Qadi’s low cross from the left in the far corner in the 18th minute.
The hosts kept pressing the Mongolian defence and nearly doubled their lead when Adam Friakh’s volley forced goalkeeper Bilguun Amartuvshin into a superb rising save in 72nd minute. Zaid thought he had extended his team’s lead by finding the back of the net off a rebound, but the goal was ruled offside.
The Qatar captain, however, managed to complete his brace with a low drive from outside the box, wrapping up the victory in 84th minute.
