The Qatar national football team made headlines at the 2026 World Cup by securing a dramatic draw against Switzerland. The reigning champions of the Asian Cup managed to level the score just moments before the final whistle, defying expectations.
After Switzerland converted a controversial penalty, the European side appeared poised for victory. However, they could not build on their narrow lead, and Qatar seized a late opportunity. In the 90+4th minute, Huhi scored with a precise finish, bringing the match to a thrilling conclusion.
