Asian football has a number of matches to compete, among them, in the U20 Asian Cup, Japan and South Korea are both out, which is still surprising, while the two echelons of the national football team lost at the same time, the Olympic team and the U17 team, while the Asian Games team won 2-1. What is more strange is that when the South Korean team was out in the U20 Asian Cup, the Korean media actually complained about the Chinese team, thinking that it was we who shoveled their captain to cause South Korea to be out, which is really strange logic.
The national football team attacked in three fronts, and the record was 2-1
The U20 national football team has returned to Beijing, and it is a very rare scene for the players to be warmly picked up by fans at the airport, which shows that the efforts of the players have been recognized. The U17 national football team warmed up in Dubai, and lost to Saudi Arabia U17 with a score of 0-1, Yang Chen led the team to suffer a loss, but we need to reverse the time difference, but also have to adapt to the local venue, climate, diet and other conditions, maybe 3 days later, and then play Saudi Arabia U17, there will be a different result.
The Olympic team also warmed up non-stop, against a team ranked 6th in the Croatian First Division, where Cheng Yaodong's team was crushed and lost 2-0.
However, the Asian Games team of the national football team won a warm-up victory, defeating UAE First Division side Fulisangsispania 2-1 to win the final match of the trip to West Asia.
U20 Asian Cup, Japan and South Korea out, Iraq and Uzbekistan advanced
In the U20 Asian Cup, in the semi-finals, Japan and Iraq played each other, and in 90 minutes, the score was 1-1, and then in extra time, Iraq scored first, and Japan stubbornly equalized in the 118th minute. After entering the penalty shootout, Iraq hit all 5 free throws, Japan made 3 of 4 free throws, and in the end, Japan was out.
South Korea and hosts Uzbekistan clashed, with no goals scored in regular time and no winners in extra time. In the penalty shootout, South Korea lost 1-3 and missed the final and had no chance of winning the Asian Cup for the 12th time.
However, the Korean media "NVAER" pointed out that the exit was all because in the quarterfinal match against the Chinese team, their captain Lee Seungwon was injured by the national football player, resulting in the semifinals being unable to play, which made the South Korean team with a huge loss out. Perhaps, the South Koreans forgot that they injured Uzbekistan's main striker in regular time, if it weren't for the early exit, would you have been able to make it to extra time?
