The Oman Football Association (OFA) held a draw ceremony of the semifinal knockout stages round on Wednesday at its headquarters at the Seeb Stadium. Fahad al Raisi, Director of Sports Development and Welfare at Ministry of Sports Affairs, was the chief guest in presence of OFA officials and representatives of the qualified clubs.
