The 7th round of the World Preliminary Round of 12 is over, the qualifying situation is basically clear, the two groups have presented a polarized situation, B group Saudi Arabia, Japan, Australia basically locked in the top three, the latter is 7 points ahead of the fourth place Oman, the biggest suspense is the second place dispute, Australia and Japan are only 1 point apart, the ranking may change at any time; and Group A is more obvious, Iran became the first team to qualify, and south Korea won 3 consecutive victories, 8 points ahead of the third place UAE, There is a high probability that the promotion can be completed in the next round, and the current main thing is to see whether the UAE can stabilize the third position.
It should be said that the above qualifying situation is also basically in line with the ranking of the Asian football national team, but since it is a game, there may be accidental factors, so objectively speaking, only teams like Iran that have indeed won the quota can celebrate with peace of mind, and other teams must prepare for the next round. According to the schedule, the 8th round of 6 matches was completed on February 1 and February 2, respectively, but there was a sudden accident in the preparation process, and the second place in Group B, South Korea, tested positive for the new crown, which also made the outside world more worried.
On the way to challenge Syria, the South Korean team arrived in Dubai first, waiting for the test results at the airport, Hong Zhe unfortunately turned positive, considering the epidemic prevention factors, all the personnel of the South Korean team can only be temporarily isolated, need to wait for the final result, and due to isolation observation, the South Korean team can not carry out normal preparations,
The next 3 days arrangement has also become unknown, especially in the February 1 match, whether South Korea can participate, on the one hand, depends on whether the local epidemic prevention policy is approved; on the other hand, it also depends on the relevant arrangements of the AFC, after all, this is related to the safety of the opponents. If the situation is more serious, then the Korean team may not be able to participate, then whether the competition is postponed, or the conditions of participation are not up to standard and disqualified, these need to wait for time to give an answer.
In the ongoing Women's Asian Cup competition, the host Country, India, has lost the opportunity to participate due to the lack of people due to the epidemic. Since the last two games in the next stage are in March, the impact is limited to this stage, the South Korean team needs to communicate in time, strive to coordinate and solve the problem as soon as possible, the team will resume normal operation as soon as possible, and strive to continue the momentum of 3 consecutive wins and fight the battle of qualifying.
