Qatar see off Saudi Arabia to enter handball semifinals, beat India in volleyball
Qatar flew into the semifinal rounds of the handball tournament at the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta, Indonesia, by beating Saudi Arabia 28-23 in a thrilling game.
The Qataris, who are looking to defend their Asian Games gold from four years ago, were unstoppable against the Saudi Arabians at the Popki Stadium in Jakarta.
Although the Qataris’ superiority was never in doubt, they tended to become defensive towards the end of the game, giving Saudi Arabia a brief respite, before closing down the game once and for all, reported Gulf Times.
