Bosnia narrowly defeated Qatar 3-1 in front of 67,000 spectators in Seattle and completed its matches in Group 2 of the World Cup with 4 points, which are probably enough to send it to the “32” of the organization. Qatar ranked 4th and returns to Doha. The score opened in the 29th minute
with a shot from outside the area by 18-year-old Kerim Alabegovic and became one of the youngest scorers in the history of the institution. Five minutes later (34th minute) Edin Dzeko made the attempt and goalkeeper Abunada, in his attempt to clear the ball, sent it into his team’s net. The 40-year-old captain of the Bosnian national team hit the post in the 38th minute, missing the opportunity to “clean up” the match. This gave Julen Lopetegui’s team the opportunity to get back into the game, as they reduced the deficit in the 42nd minute with Alhajdos with a close-range shot, while they immediately threatened to equalize in the second half, but Miguel’s diagonal shot was blocked by Vasili’s right post.
In the second half, the pace dropped, Qatar began to hope that towards the end they could achieve something good, but in the 80th minute another young Bosnian, 21-year-old Emir Mamic, made the final 3-1 with a shot inside the area.
