RIYADH: Qatar's fighting 1-1 draw against hosts Saudi Arabia in their Gulf Cup opener on Thursday was 'positive result', according to captain Bilal Mohammed. "It was possible to achieve a better result but the draw is a positive result," defender Bilal said on Thursday. "We had chances to score but we could not convert those chances. We were trailing but then we fought well in the second half," he added. "We are ready for our next two matches. We are confident that we will be able to rectify our mistakes in the coming matches," he said. "Hopefully we will not waste the chances to score goals," Bilal said. "We can see that we will win matches if we keep fighting like the way we did today," he said confidently. "All possibilities are there. We can win the next two matches and qualify for the semis," he said. Qatar play Yemen on November 16 and then Bahrain on November 19.
