We’re into the business end of the tournament now and every second will be important as the players can’t afford to make any mistake. After the quarterfinal round, we had our four semifinalists in the form of IR Iran, Japan, Qatar and United Arab Emirates.

While Japan and Iran faced off in the first of the semifinals, Qatar and UAE will play the second. And with Japan coming out victorious from that encounter, we now move our attention to the second semifinal which decides the Blue Samurai’s opponents in the final of the tournament.

Qatar have been one of the best sides in the tournament and haven’t conceded a single goal yet. Their quarterfinal win over Korea Republic only strengthened their claim at being one of the big favourites to win the tournament.

Hosts UAE, on the other hand, haven’t had a straightforward path to the semifinal but they got the better of defending champions Australia in the QF which would have boosted their confidence tenfold.

The head to head records are even with Qatar winning the first two encounters while UAE triumphing over their regional rivals in the most recent meetings — including at the Asian Cup 2015 in Australia.

However, this will be the first time the two Middle East countries will be meeting in the knockout stages of the competition.
