1:17Saudi Arabia beat Qatar in Doha 1-0 on Thursday night in the Gulf Cup, could this be a sign that a 2.5-year embargo against Qatar is easing?
Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain will send their teams to Qatar for the Gulf Cup of Nations, reversing a decision to avoid playing in their neighboring country they have collectively boycotted for 2 ½ years.
The Saudi and UAE soccer bodies say they have accepted renewed invitations to play from the Doha-based Arab Gulf Cup Football Federation.
The Nov. 24-Dec. 6 tournament should now include all eight federation members, including defending champion Oman.
The decision to play in Qatar, the 2022 World Cup host nation, suggests an easing of relations in a political, economic and transport boycott of Qatar since June 2017.
