This tournament has really been against all odds 

well there's no fans in Qatar except these tournament and emir cup final  , all the time stadiums are empty in their local matches , so i'm not sure this is the 1st time or not , but i guess Qatar yes is very closed society , but it's not up normal to see local women attending events and ofc WC made the Qatari society more open . 

What an interesting final!  Jordan reached here for the first time while Qatar looking to repeat the glory they took last edition. And only the 3rd All-Arab final at the championships so far.
 
Heartbreaking for Iran as I think almost everybody have seen them as champions.
 
I am routing for Jordan since they are my favorite West Asian team since more than two decades ago.

Cote d'Ivoire to the final , they will face Nigeria on Sunday in a very promising final 

This tournament has really been against all odds 

Nigeria to the final after defeating SA in Penalties , very deserved qualification and they really deserve this title 

SA equalizes in 88th minute after Nigeria scored a goal by Osimhen , VAR turned the play because there was a penalty for SA before the goal and SA equalized from that penalty , we are going to extra time

Must admit, first time I see Qatari ladies celebrating in a stadium. was nice and really refreshing, because I found the QAT male fans quite annoying
 
Still from my point of view, I found it Quite unusual to say the least, but again, I do not really follow QAT football competitions so closely, so maybe it is nowadays perfectly normal (which would be cool ofc)

Final 100% arabic , well done

Semis ! Here we come 

SA Goalkeeper Mark Williams saved 4 penalties and a big chance in the vary last minute of regular time to lead SA into Semis with a victory over Cape Verde 

wow , that was unexpected  it's sometimes possible to get a lucky win but that was a well deserved win, Iran totally dominated the 2nd half and had so many chances. 
 
 
yeah this is football. nothing is impossible. our worst players in previous matches did great today, Mohebbi scored the first goal and Kanaani got the last minute penalty.

i don't know what is a point of having a quarter final match at 12:30 pm local time , maybe they don't want their matches to cross with AFCON , but still very weird
