A late, late goal from Majed
Mohamed gave hosts Qatar a 3-2 win over Iran in their opening match of the
International Friendly Tournament in Doha on Monday.
Before the 94th minute intervention, the game was set for a draw after Iran had fought back from two goals down.
Qatar scored both in the opening ten minutes. Ali Hassan Afif got the first after seven, firing a fine left foot shot from the left corner of the area into the top corner of the net.
Mohamed made it two shortly after as he was given too much space in the box to send a powerful header past the dive of Seyed Mehdi Rahmati as the hosts looked ready to run riot.
Iran recovered well however and were back in the game seven minutes before the break.
Milad Zanidpour shot home a rocket from outside the area to silence the fans at Qatar Sports Club.
Two minutes after the restart Ehsan Hajisafi equalized, capitalizing on a weak defensive clearance from a corner to swivel and score with a fierce low shot.
Both sides had chances to win the game but it was Qatar who managed it four minutes into injury time.
Iranian defender Hossein Kaebi chested down a long Qatar pass and was robbed by Mohamed who proceeded to score with a low shot past the oncoming Rahmati.
North Korea defeated Mali 1-0 the previous day.
