The Asian Cup eight into four ended all the competition, Uzbekistan defeated Saudi Arabia 2-0, Iraq defeated Vietnam 1-0, among the traditional strong teams, only Japan advanced to the semifinals, Saudi Arabia, Australia and South Korea have all been out, the pattern of Asian football has been quietly changing, semi-finals, Japan vs. Iraq, Uzbekistan vs. Indonesia.
Uzbekistan's clean sheet Saudi Arabia advanced, which is considered revenge for the U23 Asian Cup final two years ago, Yahya and Ghamdi in the Saudi team were the main force at the time, and now they have mixed tastes, especially Yahya, who was sent off with a red card in the game, so that Saudi Arabia lost the opportunity to equalize, and Ghamdi is the hero of Saudi Arabia's championship two years ago, it was he who took the lead for the team and opened the door to victory, and now he can only watch the opponent celebrate.
Norchaev is the opposite, two years ago he scored nothing, unable to save the team, two years later, he scored a goal for the team, and Faizullaev, who gave him an assist, from the substitute two years ago, has grown into the most potential new star in Uzbekistan and even Asia, and Rakhmonaliev, who scored the second goal, has gained a foothold in Kazan Ruby, and what is more terrifying is that this Uzbekistan not only won all four games and scored 12 goals, but also did not concede a goal, and is already the biggest favorite to win the championship, in fact, this is not surprising, Uzbekistan has been improving at all levels of youth teams in recent years, and has shone in the World Youth Championships, and the results should be。
Backed by the big stage of the Russian Premier League, the rise of Uzbekistan is already a matter of time, or rather, Uzbekistan has become the top in Asia, but it needs the competition to correct its name, and this Olympic preliminaries are just a stage, Uzbekistan was very good in the past, but there is always no result, there is excellent physical fitness, and now it has polished its skills and tactics, Faizulaev and Husanov, they may grow into Asian superstars in the future, and the Central Asian wolf has been reborn and is only one step away from making history.
Iraq is another rising powerhouse, although Iraq won the Asian championship that year, the world ranking is not low, but it has never been able to get close to the top, and it is also a little far from the Olympic Games and the World Cup, and after supplementing the naturalization of strong reinforcements, the Iraqi senior team defeated Japan in the Asian Cup, this Asian Cup, Iraq is not all the main force, the group stage is even lower and higher, and it will lose when it comes up, but the team has won a wave of three consecutive victories, and Vietnam has no luck, in fact, Vietnam's performance this time is not good, but the group has an advantage, plus the group stage luck is too good, and when it comes to the knockout round, luck cannot make up for the hard power, Iraq and Uzi are the sameThe younger generation, which can be called the top in Asia, will shake the dominance of Japan, South Korea, Saudi Arabia and Australia.
