The one night I was in Dubai last week, the UAE defeated Oman to win their first-ever Gulf Cup competition. This competition is a bi-annual tournament (I think) featuring all the countries in the Persian Gulf region. I watched highlights of the 1-0 victory that night and pictures of the street celebrations are attached.

Interesting fact: UAE is coached by Frenchman Bruno Metsu, who I remember from the 2002 World Cup as he coached Senegal into the quarterfinals that year. They opened the Copa by defeating France 1-0, a game I was lucky enough to attend.
