Qatar topped Asian qualifying and, under Spanish coach Julen Lopetegui and star Akram Afif, aims to surprise with the tournament’s high scoring rate. Lopetegui intends to implement a possession‑based style with short passes and clean transitions from the back.
Afif arrives in top form and is expected to be the team's primary attacking threat. Qatar plans to employ 4‑3‑3 or 4‑2‑3‑1 formations, emphasizing high press and quick counter‑pressing.
With an average of 3. 61 goals per match in qualifying, the side hopes to replicate that firepower on the world stage.
