In this game, the Japanese team played their top level in Asia, which shocked everyone, and it seems that this Asian Cup, the Japanese team is also difficult to deal with.

At the end of the match between Japan and Saudi Arabia, the other match of this group was also over, and the Vietnamese team did their best to finally win a magical 2-1 victory over Syria with a penalty kick and successfully broke through from this group.

The second group stage of this Asian Cup is over, and the first place is the Japanese team, they have won three games, won two and drawn one, and have seven points, ranking first in the group.

Vietnam, on the other hand, also have seven points from three games, two wins and one draw, but their goal difference is less than Japan's second place in the group, and these two teams broke through from this group to advance to the quarterfinals of this Asian Cup.

The Syrian team, which has good strength, unexpectedly lost to Vietnam in the most crucial game of the group, and the Syrian team's record is three games, one win, two losses and three points, ranking third in the group.

Saudi Arabia followed in the footsteps of the Qatar team, losing all three games with zero points, ranking last in the group, and was eliminated directly with Syria.

This is followed by Group 3 matches, with Australia against Bahrain and South Korea against Thailand.

After the end of the first two rounds of matches, the situation in the third group is also full of suspense, the Australian team has two games, one win and one draw with four points, ranking first in the group, South Korea has the same record and also has four points, but because of goal difference, it ranks second in the group, Bahrain has two games, one win and one loss and three points, ranking third in the group, and Thailand has lost two games with zero points, at the bottom and out early.

Thailand are already out of the tournament early, but Australia, South Korea and Bahrain all have a chance to qualify from the group, and all three teams are likely to be eliminated, so the situation in the final round is very crucial.

One of the most crucial games is the match between Australia and Bahrain, if Bahrain wins, Bahrain will advance, but Australia is not without a chance to advance, as long as Thailand beats South Korea, they have the possibility of qualifying, but the probability of this is very small.

Of course, if Bahrain loses, South Korea will advance no matter what.

So at this time, Australia, South Korea and Bahrain are not safe, and they all have to go crazy and fight this game, which will be the level of Mars hitting Earth.

The first was the game of the South Korean team, which was completely powerless at the beginning, and the South Korean team quickly took the initiative of the game and stormed the Thai team's penalty area.

In the tenth minute of the first half, the South Korean team broke through Thailand's goal, Gu Zizhe went straight through, Hwang Hee-chan pushed the shot, and the South Korean team led 1-0.

In this game, South Korea's Koo Zi-chul and Hwang Hee-chan performed very well, the two turned Thailand's defense upside down, Hwang Hee-chan scored twice in this game and completed an assist, while Goo Ji-chul scored a goal and sent two assists.

In the end, the South Korean team defeated the Thai team 3-0 and won the place to qualify from the group.

South Korea's crazy performance did put a lot of pressure on Australia, and in such a situation, if they lost, they would be eliminated from the competition.

When the South Korean team played very well, they were very nervous, and the Bahrain team also played very hard to qualify, often threatening their goal, but they were almost broken by the opponent.

Thankfully, they won 1-0.

In the end, the group game of the third group ended, the Australian national team ranked first in the group with seven points from three games, two wins and one draw, and the South Korean team also ranked second in the group with three games, two wins and one draw, and the disadvantage of a goal difference ranked second in the group, and the two teams won the right to qualify from the group and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup.

The Bahrain team is ranked third in the group with three games, one win and two losses, and the Thai team is at the bottom of the group with zero points, and these two teams were eliminated and missed the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup.

This is followed by the final group match, and the final matches are like this, Iraq against North Korea, Kyrgyzstan against Iran.

After the first two rounds of matches, the Iranian team won all two games and ranked first in the group with six points, the Iraqi team ranked second in the group with one win and one loss in two games, the North Korean team ranked third in the group with two games, one draw and one loss, and Kyrgyzstan also won two games, one draw and one loss, and ranked fourth in the group on goal difference.

The Iranian team, which won both games in this group, has already qualified in advance, but the remaining three teams are all likely to qualify, and the three teams will compete for a place in the final group stage, which is a very cruel thing.

Of course, the Iraqi team is in absolute advantage right now, because they have the most points with three points.

But this is not safe, in the last round, they must not at least lose to North Korea, otherwise they will have no chance of qualifying.

The Iraqi team is desperate, and of course the North Korean team is also out of the way, they know that only if they win can they have a chance to qualify.

But it was clear that Iraq was the tougher team, and in the 30th minute of the first half, Iraq scored the first goal to maintain this goal advantage until the end.

As soon as the result of this match was announced, the last suspense of the fourth group was also revealed, and Iraq won the second place in this group.

Almost at the same time, the Iranian team did not disappoint, defeating Kyrgyzstan 2-0 to win all three games in the group stage and easily advance to the quarterfinals.

North Korea and Kyrgyzstan have the same record, both three games, one draw, two losses and one point, North Korea ranks third in goal difference, Kyrgyzstan is at the bottom, and the two teams are eliminated together.
