DUBAI (Reuters)
Our national team left the Asian Cup after losing 4-3 against Vietnam after a 1-1 draw after an overtime at Dubai's Al Maktoum Stadium on Sunday.
Baha Abdel Rahman gave the home side a goal after 39 minutes into the game, after an indirect free kick just outside the penalty area. Nguyen Kong Vong equalized for Vietnam after six minutes of play, in the second half.
PT Dong scored the decisive penalty for Vietnam after substitutes Baha Faisal and Ahmed Samir Saleh missed their offer.
Our team made four changes to the game, including three in overtime, on the first application of a new rule allowing a fourth change when extra time is used in the playoffs.
Vietnam will meet in the quarter-finals with Saudi Arabia or Japan next Thursday in Dubai.
