There are still 3 weeks to go before the registration deadline set by the AFC, and there is still no news of which country will host the Asian Cup, in fact, among the 46 member countries, only Japan and South Korea have proposed the idea of bidding, but they have not seen actual action. Obviously, the AFC is now an ant on the hot pot, and if this issue has not been resolved by the end of June, then the 2023 Asian Cup may not be postponed, or even cancelled directly.
The AFC most hopes to see China re-propose to host the Asian Cup, and believes that as long as the Chinese Football Association gives a positive response, the differences between the two sides due to the prevention and control of the epidemic can be resolved. But the problem is that the AFC did not pay attention to China's investment of more than 2 years and the sacrifice of active cooperation across the country, and after hearing that China could not meet the requirements of fully opening up the admission of fans, it immediately changed its face and cancelled our hosting rights. Now, the AFC has once again issued an invitation to bid for all countries in the Asian region, including China, the meaning is very clear, this is to come back to China, it is really a bit deceitful.
The Chinese Football Association has not given any reply for the time being, it should be unwilling to host the Asian Cup, even the Asian Games can be postponed, an Asian Cup with a relatively low degree of attention, do not hold it. What's more, the current situation of the Chinese men's football team is so bad, it is really difficult to expect them to achieve good results, and if they lose at home, they will be insulted by the fans. In response to this situation, the Vietnamese media has given a solution, but it is somewhat absurd. Vietnamese media "PLO" believes that since China is not willing to break the epidemic prevention regulations, it simply does not contribute money, and Vietnam or other countries are responsible for the specific undertaking of the Asian Cup.
Simply put, the Chinese Football Association is responsible for all the costs, and the matches are played in Vietnam or other countries. The Vietnamese media have good reasons, they have hosted the Eastern Games, the football atmosphere is also very warm, the only problem is the lack of money. Vietnamese media also said that of course, in addition to Vietnam, the Chinese team can also pay for other countries to hold. I have to say that since Vietnam defeated the national football team in the round of 12, its self-confidence is extremely explosive, and it has completely ignored Chinese football in its eyes, and even this kind of brain-clear plan can be figured out, which is completely treating the Chinese Football Association as a wronged head, deceiving people too much.
In the face of such a strange idea, fans should listen to a joke, the Chinese Football Association will certainly not be stupid enough to pay others to hold the event, which can only say that Vietnamese football has swelled, and perhaps there is a possibility, that is, the media wants to create momentum for the Vietnam Football Association, hoping that the Vietnam Football Association can express its position, their purpose is to host the Asian Cup!
