Cup Group C: know what each team needs to qualify

The third round of the group stage is decisive in defining the lives of many teams in the Qatar Cup.

The duels, for the most part, decide who advances to the round of 16 and who stays along the way.

Even the teams that already have their place assured, with two victories in the first two clashes, are interested in their game, to try to finish the group in the lead and avoid, theoretically, a more difficult game in the first knockout.
