He started in all three group stage games and then in two knockout stage games against Iraq and Tajikistan, before missing out the semi-finals due to yellow card accumulation. Despite having no goals during the competition, Olwan's ability to hold the ball and dribble in tight spaces made him a threat to the opponent's defense, liberating spaces for his teammates to score.
