(Doha) Qatar, beaten by Senegal (3-1) on Friday at the Al-Thumama stadium in Doha, is already very close to being eliminated from its World Cup, five days after its defeat in the opening match against Ecuador (2-0).
If Ecuador do not beat the Netherlands in the afternoon (5 p.m.), Qatar will become the first World Cup host country to leave the competition on the second day of the group stage.
