Palestine Qualifies as Group Leader, Qatar Finishes Last with One Point

The Palestinian national team has qualified for the quarterfinals of the Arab Cup as group leader, finishing the group stage with five points. They edged out the Syrian national team, who also advanced to the same round with an identical points tally, on goal difference.

Goal difference favored "Al-Fida'i" (Palestine) for the top spot, as they scored three goals and conceded two. The Syrian team secured second place, having scored two goals and conceded one, thus also guaranteeing their passage to the knockout stages.

Conversely, the Tunisian national team exited the competition after finishing third with four points. The Qatari national team concluded their campaign in last place with just one point, a result observers considered disappointing for their fans.

With this final standing, both the Palestinian and Syrian teams continue their tournament journey with increased confidence, having secured qualification from a highly competitive group that saw intense rivalry extend until the final matchday.
