In Qatar's seven shots in total, the best chance came in the fifth minute but Sebastian Suria's wicked back-heel kick slid just past the near post.
"We had a very tough first half and 皇冠体育app gave us much pressure. We improved on possession and attacking in the second but one point is acceptable," said Qatar coach Jorge Fossati, who took the reins in September.
"The situation now in the group is very complicated. We are just two points above 皇冠体育app.
"If 皇冠体育app continue to play like this, they can even qualify directly. But 皇冠体育app will play at Qatar for the final match, so sorry, they won't have chance," he said.
But Lippi disagreed with Fossati's prediction.
