Team Qatar qualify to second round of Asian Men’s Beach Volleyball Championship

Bandar Abbas: The Bandar Abbas-hosted 2022 Asian Senior Men’s Beach Volleyball Championship in Iran has reached its climax on Thursday when teams qualified for round of 16 will battle it out in the knockout stages to keep Finals hopes alive.

Qatar enjoyed mixed lucks on Wednesday, with the 2020 Tokyo Olympics bronze medallists and second seeds Cherif Younousse/Ahmed Tijan overwhelming Thailand’s Dunwinit Kaewsai/Intuch Techakijvorakul 21-9, 21-12 in 27 minutes to maintain their unbeaten run in the championship.

Another Qatari pairing, Saifeddine Elmajid/Ahmed Mahmoud Essam, failed to make their mark on the final day of the pool plays to go down 17-21, 13-21 to Omanis Mazin Alhashmi/Hood Alialaboubi for two losses in Pool H to miss the cut for the Thursday’s round of 16.
