International Friendly: Oman thrash Malasiya 3-0

A first-half double by Emad Al Hosni saw Gulf Cup champions Oman trounce Malaysia 3-0 in a friendly on Friday here in the capital of Qatar.

Oman, who are preparing to defend the Gulf region football title in Yemen (November 22 to December 4), are also scheduled to play AFC Asian Cup 2011 hosts Qatar in another international friendly on September 7 at the same venue.

Hassan Rabia fired Claude Le Roy’s side into a shock third minute lead and Malaysia never recovered from this first blow.

Al Hosni scored the first of his two goals in the 37th minute and sealed the win with his brace a minute before the break.

The last time Malaysia took on Oman was in the Doha Asian Games in 2006, when Norizan Bakar’s Malaysian team lost 3-1 at the Al Arabi Stadium.
