China looking to ride on momentum from first WC qualifier win

Promising result has reignited hope of qualification for Qatar 2022

China will be looking to build on the momentum from their first win in the 2022 FIFA World Cup Asian Qualifiers when they take on Oman in their next match. The 3-2 victory over the Philippines on Thursday has reignited hopes of qualification for Qatar 2022, and a win against Oman would put China in a strong position to reach the next round.

China's qualification hopes

China is currently in fourth place in Group A of the Asian Qualifiers, with four points from four matches. The top two teams in each group will automatically qualify for the World Cup, while the third-placed teams will advance to a play-off round. With six matches remaining, China is still in contention for one of the top two spots.

Oman a tough test

However, Oman will be a tough test for China. The Omanis are currently in third place in Group A, with five points from four matches. They are a well-organized and disciplined team, and they will be looking to make it difficult for China to get a result.

China will need to be at their best

To get a win against Oman, China will need to be at their best. They will need to be organized in defense and clinical in attack. They will also need to take their chances, as they did against the Philippines.
