2022 FIFA World Cup: Oman's hopes dashed after 1-0 defeat to Vietnam

Oman's hopes of reaching the 2022 FIFA World Cup were dashed on Tuesday after they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Vietnam in their final qualifying match.

The result means that Oman finish third in Group B, behind Vietnam and Australia, and will not advance to the next round of qualifying.

Oman started the match brightly and had a number of chances to take the lead in the first half, but they were unable to find the back of the net.

Vietnam took the lead in the second half through a goal from Nguyen Tien Linh, and Oman were unable to find an equalizer despite throwing men forward in search of a goal.

The defeat is a major disappointment for Oman, who had hoped to reach the World Cup for the first time in their history.
