Qatar have stepped up preparations for the FIFA World Cup with an intensive training camp in Doha ahead of Thursday’s friendly against Sudan at 6:30pm. The Asian champions are using the fixture as part of their build-up to football’s biggest stage, with head coach Julen Lopetegui continuing to assess his options before trimming the preliminary 34-man squad ahead of the team’s departure to North America later this month.
Al Annabi will also face Ireland on May 28 and El Salvador on June 6 in additional warm-up matches before launching their World Cup campaign against Switzerland on June 13. Qatar will then take on co-hosts Canada and Bosnia in the remaining group-stage fixtures. The FIFA World Cup will run from June 11 to July 19.
