The first discontent arrived in the international competition, where the group qatarí has remained in check. The To the-Hilal struck him with strength in the stadium Jassim Bin Hamad in the gone of semifinals, since the expulsion of Abdelkarim Hassan resulted definite. The 1-1 momentary turned into a dangerous 1-4, that leaves very of face the classification for the Saudi and that forces to the pupilos of the Catalan to look for a dificilísima traced back.

Although this will not result so determinant, also there was slip in the championship of the regularity, that confirmed that it is necessary to improve a lot for the next parties. Also home, the To the-Rayyan repeated goleada, in a meeting in which the square with headquarters in Doha was always in tow. It attained to sustain until the 2-2, but afterwards desangró until the 2-4 that reflected the marker after the pitido final.

And finally, the première copero was not the expected, and has done to sound all the alarms. Xavi opted by some rotations in his duel with the To the-Wakra and the plan did not go out as it expected, because after equalising to one just before the rest, in the go through changing rooms already had lumbered with him a 1-3 that finish turning into a 1-5, that ensures, with total firmness, that it is necessary to react what before to avoid more problems.
