With this result, Al Arabi raised their score to 10 points in second place on goal difference with Al Duhail who had the same number of points.
Thus, Al Duhail and Al Arabi, along with Al Rayyan and Al Ahli (who both had seven points each) progressed to the quarterfinals, the top-four teams in that order, from Group A.
Qatar SC remained on three points and ended up in fifth place on goal difference with Al Shahania (sixth) who also had the same number of points.
Qatar SC tried from the beginning to snatch the lead in their bid to take an advantage, but the first half did not witness any real danger from either team except for some quick attacks that did not pose a real threat to the goal.
In the second half, the performance was stronger as Qatar SC played enthusiastically and threatened Jassim Al Hail’s goal on several occasions. However, their attacks did not yield the desired result.
In the 88th minute, Sebastian Soria almost gave Qatar SC the lead through a concerted effort, but he missed the ball near the post. This was followed by another attack by Qatar SC in 90+1 minute, but Al Hail brilliantly pushed the ball to safety and the teams had to be content with a 0-0 draw.
