Notes: Server Dzheparov converted a penalty at 39', but the referee disallowed the
goal due to encroachment. However, instead of ordering the penalty to be
retaken (in accordance with the Laws of the Game), the referee gave a
free-kick to Bahrain. After the match, the UFF appealed to FIFA, requesting
a 3-0 win, but FIFA instead ordered the match replayed from the start.
Consequently, the result of this match was annulled, and the match is not a
full FIFA international.
