Qatar qualified for the 2026 World Cup on Tuesday with a 2-1 win over the United Arab Emirates thanks to second-half headers from Boualem Khoukhi and Pedro Miguel. It marks the first time that Qatar, which lost all three group-stage games when it hosted the 2022 tournament, has advanced through qualification. The victory put Qatar atop Group A in the fourth round of Asian qualification, ahead of second-place UAE, which now moves on to the fifth round and playoffs.
