DAMMAM/JUBAIL: Chinese Taipei secured a 4-0 victory over Pakistan in their final Group D match of the AFC Futsal Asian Cup Indonesia 2026 qualifiers on Wednesday. The win helped them finish third in the group after earlier losses to Saudi Arabia and Iraq. From the start, Chinese Taipei pressed forward and created several chances. Pakistan struggled to contain their attacks, which mainly came down the flanks. A defensive mistake led to the opening goal in the 10th minute, giving Chinese Taipei the lead at half-time. After the break, Chinese Taipei quickly added a second goal from a set-piece. They then converted a penalty in the 26th minute to increase the margin. Pakistan&rsquo;s decision to use a power play in the 36th minute backfired when Chinese Taipei&rsquo;s goalkeeper scored from his own half into an empty net, sealing the 4-0 win. Pakistan had limited opportunities and found it difficult to break through a disciplined Chinese Taipei defence. The East Asian team controlled the game throughout and saw out the match without conceding. The match took place at Prince Nayef Sports City Hall. Chinese Taipei ended their qualifying campaign on a positive note while Pakistan will look to improve ahead of future contests.
