Asian Cup Final: Players to watch

Qatar's main man throughout the opening stages of the tournament was Hassan Al-Haydos.

The versatile forward came off the bench to score the winner against China in the group stages, which he followed up with another goal in a 2-1 win over Palestine.

The 33-year-old then popped up with another strike in the quarter-final victory over Uzbekistan.

He was on the bench for the semi-final, but he should be back to try and lead his country to glory.

For Jordan, their striker Yazan Al-Naimat is the one to keep an eye on.

The 24-year-old boasts a one in two goal record at international level and has three at the Asia Cup.

Asian Cup Final: What has been said?

Speaking after their incredible win over Morocco, Hussein Ammouta said: "The players delivered a heroic performance.

"The X-factor was we didn’t need to give South Korea more respect than needed.

"Based on their record in their last few games, they conceded goals and we knew it was possible to score against them, that was the turning point."
