Switzerland took the lead through Breel Embolo from a penalty kick in the 17th minute, while Boualem Khoukhi snatched the equalizer for Qatar in stoppage time (90+4), earning Al Annabi their first point of the tournament in their second World Cup appearance, following their debut in the 2022 World Cup, which they hosted on home soil.
