After a heated quarterfinal match, it got here right down to penalties.
Qatar’s goalkeeper Barsham had three saves, pushing his group into the semifinals of the Asian Cup.
Uzbekistan striker Odildzhon Hamrobekov says his group couldn’t have given any extra.
“We came to the pitch to win but a penalty [shootout] is always won by the team who have more luck,” he advised the official broadcast.
“Everything was good on the Asian Cup – all of the organisation – so I wish to thank them.
“I would like to express my gratitude to all the support given by the fans.”
There will probably be reduction and pleasure within the Qatari camp after protecting their dream of a house title win alive.
There will even be some celebrations earlier than the group and its followers start preparations for Wednesday’s semifinal in opposition to a robust Iran aspect at Al Thumama Stadium.
