I think we took that injury personally.

That was brutal. Wasn't even a particularly rough challenge, seems just really unlucky.

Did Qatar not return to the pitch for the second half?

I think the highlight isn't the score, but the fact we only need a tie to guarantee a spot in the next round.

I doubt the Qataris were helped by receiving two red cards during the match (including one on the Koné tackle).
