Qatar vs Egypt

Egypt's national team was the best team in the quarter-final match, defeating Jordan with a final result of 3-1. However, they failed to reach the Final, after losing 1-0 to Tunisia in the last minute. While Qatar managed a resounding 5-0 victory over the United Arab Emirates in the quarter-finals, only to suffer a 2-1 loss to Algeria in the semi-finals.

These opponents have a long history of fighting with the first dating back to July 21, 1989 and ending in a thrilling 3-3 draw in an international friendly match. Tonight, in another edition of this confrontation, we will see who gets third place in the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup.

December 18, 2021 2:14 AM ET

A very even duel

Egypt will face Qatar at the 974 Stadium in Doha, in the match for third place at the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup. This will be just their eighth meeting in history. There are not many surprises, as Egypt has been the favorite in most of these matches, for some reason or another, achieving a win in three games so far; while Qatar has celebrated a victory, and two matches have ended in a draw so far.

Their last game took place on March 7, 2013 and ended with a 3-1 victory for The Maroon in an international friendly. It promises to be an even more exciting clash today as they meet for the first time in eight years, and this time in an official match to determine who will finish third in the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup.

This is how both teams arrive for this match

Historically, the matches between Egypt and Qatar have been very balanced matches, with only four victories recorded in the history of this confrontation. The last meeting between the two teams was played on March 7, 2013. Then, defender Abdelkarim Hassan scored a very important goal for Qatar's 3-1 victory over Egypt.

Ayman Ashraf will not be able to play for the Pharaohs due to a damaged knee ligament, while the hosts will not be able to count on Pedro Miguel due to a hip injury. In any case, neither team lacks options in defense to cover their losses and obtain third place in the 2021 Arab Cup.

December 18, 2021 1:19 AM ET

Match for third place

After experiencing nine action-packed days during the last two and a half weeks, the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup comes to a close this Saturday, with the match between Tunisia and Algeria in the tournament's Grand Final.

But before the final starts, Qatar and Egypt will meet in the match for third place, in order to provide some consolation to their respective fans after their painful disappointments in the semifinals last Wednesday.

December 18, 2021 1:14 AM ET

The match will be played at Stadium 974

The Stadium 974, previously known as Ras Abu Aboud Stadium, is a soccer stadium that was built in Doha, Qatar, for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. It has a planned capacity of 48,000 spectators on a 450,000 square meter lot facing the sea and will be located in a artificial promontory.

It will be built according to a modular design, using recycled shipping containers, and will be dismantled after the 2022 World Cup concludes, making it the first temporary World Cup stadium. Shipping containers and seats used in this stadium will be dismantled and provided as aid to underdeveloped countries in Africa.

The stadium received a four-star rating from the Global Sustainability Assessment System (GSAS) and will be the first stadium in the history of the FIFA World Cup that can be completely disassembled.
