ABU DHABI Coming from nowhere to win the Asian cup is just allocation of Qatar's long road to their home World cup in 2022.Felix Sanchez's team are keeping their expectations in check for the Copa America, the South American championship where they are guests along once Japan arrival in June, despite snatching the Asian title as a lowly world No. 93 side.But it is difficult to overstate their achievement - from zero points in Australia 2015 to their first continental title in record-breaking style. It with means that resource-rich Qatar are finally making headlines for the right reasons after the turbulence that surrounded their successful bid to host world football's showpiece.Almoez Ali's bicycle-kick opener epitomised a stylish triumph, 3-1 exceeding Japan in the final, as he broke Ali Daei's 23-year-old mark for goals at a single Cup."I'm sorry for breaking Mr Daei's record," a mortify Ali said after scoring his ninth of the Cup. "I customary to score goals, maybe three or four, but I didn't expect to score nine."Fittingly for a team who have punched above their weight, Akram Afif struck a boxing-style pose as he commended the late penalty to stop Japan's resistance, after they briefly threatened a comeback once 2-1 down.Qatar conceded just one point every tournament and scored 19, winning every seven games and beating new former champions Saudi Arabia, Iraq and South Korea.They with thrived in a bitter tone in the associated Arab Emirates owing to the ongoing deep hole blockade, once their fans largely barred from visiting and home viewers pelting them once shoes and bottles in the semi-finals.The title raised the beguiling possibility of Qatar innate crowned champions of both Asia and South America, although they will first have to acquire out of a society comprising Argentina, Colombia and Paraguay.But Ali said the Copa is about continuing the methodical contact that has already paid dividends."We're not expecting to win, but just to learn - because, after the World Cup, the Copa is the biggest competition in the world," he said."Asia is the weakest continent for football so, in the Copa America, we will learn more. This will back up us have a bigger be in in 2022."After spending many millions of petrodollars upon their world-class point Academy, and scouring the world for summit coaches, Qatar are arrival to recoup their investment. Head coach Sanchez led Qatar to their first Asian Under-19 title in 2014 and they reached the U-23 semi-finals last year, once Ali was with summit scorer.Afif chalked occurring a tournament-record 10 assists and formed a devastating partnership once Ali, underlining Qatar's cohesion in both defence and injury after years spent playing together."We've been together seven years for that reason I know exactly where Akram will be, where he will pass and he always knows what to expect from me," Ali said. "We acquire along entirely competently together too."Qatar's win sparked jubilant scenes back up home but, for the team, bigger goals now lie ahead."This is one step more to continue developing the team, to be in other tournament in the summer and to be ready in 2022 to represent Qatar," Sanchez said.For Japan, captain Maya Yoshida was aggrieved about Uzbek sit in judgment Ravshan Irmatov's decision to honor a penalty for handball adjoining him after a video review."That third point was essentially tough to accept," he said. "It killed the game. If that's a penalty, I probably have to hop without using my arms. It was accidental but that was the referee's decision."He added: "But they played competently and deserve to be champions."No excuses, we influence on."The Samurai Blue are grouped once Uruguay, Chile and Ecuador for the Copa. But he hopes the setback will back up them create a breakthrough exceeding the last 16 at the World Cup.He said: "Our first point is, of course, to qualify and subsequently acquire exceeding the wall at which we were stopped last time, the round of 16. That is an point for Japanese football."AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE
