They had to play in the preliminary round, where they eliminated South Sudan at the desk, as the team did not play the match because many players were infected by covid-19.
The teams of Saudi Arabia and Jordan are in the third sector, along with Morocco and Palestine, and on Wednesday afternoon, in the city of Rayan, they will make their debut in the Cup competition.
A total of 23 teams will take part: the top nine in the FIFA ranking will advance directly to the group stage, while the remaining 14 will play in a preliminary round, from which only seven will qualify.
The 16 qualified teams are divided into four sectors, each with 4 members.
Subsequently, after the three dates played, the first two places in the groups will move on to the direct elimination rounds: quarterfinals, semifinals and final. It is worth mentioning that all stages will be single-legged.
It is a cup of nations that is disputed in Arabian territory, which includes countries from Africa and Asia. This is the first time it is organized by the FIFA, and it is being held in Qatar, as a prelude to next year's World Cup in that country.
