The opening match was played between the hosts, Thailand and Iraq, and this match also gave fans a glimpse of the huge progress made in Southeast Asian football. Although the Thai team was shorter, they used their skillful skills and small cooperation to attack for 80 minutes. Since the reorganization of the war, Iraq almost couldn't even get together the 11 people for the game, but it showed a different mental outlook, and all the teams in the Asian Cup were shaken by the scramble.

In the final opening match of this Asian Cup, the Thai team and the Iraqi team drew 1:1, which can be regarded as a good start for this Asian Cup.

There were no big waves on the first day of the game, and the result was not shocking, only one game.

From the second day, the Asian Cup entered a fierce match, with Australia, considered the strongest Oceania team in Group A, taking on the mysterious division of North Korea.

Strong team against dark horse, this is what fans talk about the most, whether the dark horse can black Australia, or the Australians destroy this dark horse, no matter which result is exciting.

Although the Australian team is much higher in the world ranking than the North Korean team, this is their first time participating in the Asian Cup, and they have the most big-name players in the team, and the strength is even much stronger than Iran.

However, this time, the Australians, who were empty-eyed, finally understood the "wise saying" to be modest, they played very hard in the face of the big dark horse North Korea, and they did not occupy much advantage in normal games, until almost before the end of the field to get a penalty, and finally won 1:0 against the North Korean team.

However, the fighting power of the North Korean team in this game is also eye-catching, and many Asian media believe that the second qualifying spot will be between North Korea and Iraq.

On the third match day, it was finally China's turn to challenge the host Malaysia away. But Malaysia is much weaker than the Chinese team, and now that the Chinese team has Wu Feng, the all-out attacking style of play has basically formed.

The first big score in the group stage of this Asian Cup appeared, even the host Malaysia, the Chinese team did not stay, and won 6:0 and won the first victory of this Asian Cup.

Among them, Wu Feng scored twice in the Asian Cup for the first time as a goalkeeper, which made all Chinese fans ecstatic, Han Peng, Dong Fangzhuo, Wang Dong, and Zhang Cheng each scored a city, and the front, middle and back three lines blossomed.

On the fourth match day, the other three strong teams in Asia, Iran, Japan, and South Korea, in addition to Iran, defeated Qatar 3-1, and the other two teams, Japan and South Korea, drew 1-1.

So far, the four major Asian teams, except for Iran and Australia, have scored three points, and the other two have only won one point.

This year's biggest dark horse North Korean team has been tested by the Kangaroo Army, it is very dark, and it is a strong disruptive character.

And the other dark horse, the Chinese team, now looks like his color seems to be darker, and the host Malaysia was directly poured a 6:0.

In fact, everyone knows that without Wu Feng, this Chinese team is a complete score-giving boy, and it can only slightly disrupt the situation.

But after having Wu Feng, he is at least a gray horse. Because Wu Feng is so powerful, leading a bad team like Karlsruhe to win the Bundesliga championship and the German Cup, defeating Stuttgart, the new hegemon of the Bundesliga this time.

And Wu Feng is not just a goalkeeper, he plays an absolute core in Karlsruhe, can shoot and defend, and his free kicks made him the first Golden Boot goalkeeper in the German Cup.

Iranian coach Garanoy said half-jokingly and half-seriously when he knew that he was in a group with the Chinese team in the group stage: "Allah is on top." Fortunately, Wu Feng joined the Chinese team, and if the place of joining was the Qatar team, we would not have the opportunity to win the group. ”

Before the game, Iranian media believed that the key to this game was whether they could suppress the Chinese team, even if they made set-pieces. The set-piece should also be positioned 35 metres away, as long as the free-kick is placed away from the goal, Iran will not lose this game. And they can also attack the Chinese team's goal more and try to break Wu Feng's goal with various methods.

Asians now know that the Chinese team can play this kind of all-out attack now, all because they have Wu Feng. But no matter how good Wu Feng is, he is just a goalkeeper, as long as he doesn't give him too good set-piece opportunities, he can't score, and at most he will keep a draw.

Just as all teams in Germany now know that Karlsruhe is a team that relies on Wu Feng alone, but so far there are very few players who can break his finger score, and Stuttgart is a living example.

In the first round of the Asian Cup, Malaysia was first scored by Wu Feng's free kick, and then they could not threaten Wu Feng's goal, and other players of the Chinese team took the opportunity to score two goals. Later, it was completely chaotic and was defeated by the Chinese team.

In the face of such a super goalkeeper who can shoot and defend, how to beat the Chinese team has a problem for Iran's coach Garanoi.

Garanoy watched the video of Karlsruhe's goal conceded game and came to a conclusion: that is, in one-on-one, Wu Feng can hardly be directly attacked by the goal, and if he wants to break his goal alone, perhaps only those world-class strikers have a chance. And in the Iranian team, it is clear that there are no strikers of this level.

It's hard to win the game, but it's not hard to draw, and the Chinese team except for Wu Feng is not in the eyes of the Iranian team at all.

And the weakness of the Chinese team?

The current Chinese team, except for Wu Feng, is all weak, and those players of the Chinese team are very good in Asia. I heard that there are still a few players from strong European teams, but compared to Iran's players, they are still much worse, especially in terms of physical confrontation.

The idea has been decided, Garanoy quickly formulated a strategy of attacking instead of defending, and resolutely suppressed the Chinese team, so that it is difficult for them to create set-pieces, and it is okay to draw in the group stage, as long as they win later, they can get the first place in the points. For Malaysia, there is no pressure on Garanoi.

The match between China and Iran has attracted the attention of many reporters and fans, and everyone wants to see whether Wu Feng's first face against the traditional Haoqiang in the Asian Cup is as magical as ever, or is it a myth.

Even many Malaysian fans have abandoned the "grievances" of being bloodied by the Chinese team and turned to support the Chinese team.

The match between China and Iran was played after Japan and the United Arab Emirates. Japan, one of Asia's powerhouses, showed their full strength in the match against the UAE and finally completed the second round with a score of 4:1.

Zhu Guanglu was worried about the Japanese team's game, and he felt that the game against the Iranian team was the key to whether the Chinese team could make a breakthrough in this Asian Cup. Only by defeating the Iranian team, in the subsequent knockout rounds, can the Chinese team leapfrog the Japanese team and continue to move forward.
