Last games
Curiously, before the start of the Gold Cup, both Qatar and El Salvador played a friendly match on Croatian soil, where the Asians won by the narrowest of margins with a goal by Almoez Ali.
Key player El Salvador
Darwin Cerén struck several blows in the first minutes against Mexico, but he is a player who when he has the ball can generate damage due to his ability and technique, being a specialist in creating dangerous shots from medium distance.
Key player Qatar
Three Qatar players scored two goals during the group stage and one of them was Abdulaziz Hatem, who in addition to doing a recovery job in midfield, has the ability to join the attack as he did in the first three games.
Last Team El Salvador
1 Mario González, 5 Ronald Gómez, 4 Eriq Zavaleta, 13 Alexander Larín, 15 Alex Roldan, 7 Darwin Cerén, 12 Marvin Monterroza, 6 Narciso Orellana, 14 Joaquín Rivas, 17 Jairo Henríquez, 8 Joshua Perez.
Last Team Qatar
22 Meshaal Barsham, 16 Boualem Khoukhi, 3 Abdelkarim Hassan, 15 Bassam Al Rawi, 14 Homam Ahmed, 2 Ro-Ro, 12 Karim Boudiaf, 6 Abdelaziz Hatim, 10 Hasan Al Haydos, 19 Almoez Ali, 11 Akram Afif.
Who does the winner go up against?
The winner of this match between Qatar and El Salvador will face the winner of the match between the United States and Jamaica, and the game will be played next Thursday in the first match of the double bill.
How did El Salvador get there?
El Salvador was also another of the pleasant revelations, going from strength to strength (although it was not reflected in the results) by beating Guatemala and Trinidad and Tobago. Although they lost to Mexico by the narrowest of margins and dropped to second place in the group, they left a good taste in their mouths, especially for what they did in the second half.
How did Qatar fare?
The Asian team probably played the best soccer in the group stage, as they have a defined system in both the defensive and offensive zones and ended up scoring nine goals in their Gold Cup presentation. They advanced with seven points after beating Grenada and Honduras, having previously drawn against Panama.
Kick-off time
The Qatar vs El Salvador match will be played at the Uniersity of Phoenix Stadium, in Phoenix, United States. The kick-off is scheduled at 7:30 pm ET.
