FIFA Reassigns Historic Qatar Goal to Defender Miro Muheim

FIFA has officially credited defender Miro Muheim with the decisive goal that gave Qatar a draw against Switzerland in Group B added time, overturning the earlier attribution to captain Boualem Khoukhi. The match marked Qatar's first point ever in a World Cup, making the goal historically significant.

Khoukhi had headed a cross toward goal, but the ball rebounded off Muheim and into his own net. After a detailed video review, FIFA concluded the own‑goal belonged to Muheim.

The ruling sparked debate among Qatar officials and fans, while also boosting the team's morale for the remaining group fixtures.
