But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Moner Al Hindi couldn't finish the play. Shehab Taiban was out of position in the 62 minute of play, and Moner Al Hindi capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Moner Al Hindi really showed his touch with that goal: 0-3. If Marzoq Bo Abbas had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 69th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.
