Hello、munejyuka。

On September 2, 2021、The final Asian qualifying rounds for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar have begun.。

Japan will play their first match at home against OmanDid。

As a result, Oman won 1-0!

It was a tough start for Japan.。

There is a country called Oman.、I've heard of it, but I have almost no knowledge of where it is or what kind of country it is.。

There are also away games, so、I wanted to take this opportunity to learn a little more about Oman, so I looked into it.。

*Qatar has been decided to participate in the host country slot.、Will not participate in the final qualifying round
