No. 127: The end of the group stage of the Asian Cup

Seeing the lineup of the Chinese team, the head coach of the Uzbekistan team, Abramov, breathed a sigh of relief, he thought that they would win the game easily in this game without too much consumption, which made them very satisfied.

However, the process of the game surprised him very much, the Chinese team that came off the bench was not so easy to play, and they also consumed a lot.

Of course, in this game, the Uzbekistan team finally defeated the Chinese team 3-1, but the price they paid was very large. First, the players of the Uzbekistan team were forced to be fierce by the substitute players of the Chinese team, and their physical energy was consumed a lot. Second, in this game, Jeparov, the core player of the Uzbekistan team, unexpectedly got a red card and will miss the next knockout round.

The result of this game made the head coach of the Uzbekistan team, Abramov, feel very bad, he knew that he would never play against the Chinese team like this, and even he would not let Jeparov play.

After the game, Abramov was very angry, and frantically criticized the referee of the game at the post-match press conference, of course, he did not let go of the head coach of the Chinese team, Gao Hongbo, and criticized Gao Hongbo fiercely, as well as complained about the players of the Chinese team.

Abramov was angry about Jeparov's red card, he thought that Jeparov did not foul at all, and the referee was completely deceived by Yang Hao, a player of the Chinese team, Yang Hao is a third-rate film.

After the game, Abramov frantically attacked Yang Hao, believing that Yang Hao was the player who should be sent off.

In this game, the Uzbek team was obviously very dissatisfied, and they are now angry. The Chinese team, on the other hand, felt that it was okay and acceptable, and when they made such a choice, he was ready to make such an acceptance.

The players of the Chinese team have now put all their attention on the knockout rounds of the upcoming Asian Cup.

At the end of the match between China and Uzbekistan, the other match of Group 1 was also over. The Dongfang Chen Qatar team, which has been out, defeated the Kuwait team, which has also been out, 3-0.

In this game, the Qatar national team table is very good, their attack is smooth, and the three goals are very beautiful, which makes Qatar fans regret, regret that the state of the Qatar national team players came too late, if they have such a state at the beginning of the group stage, it will be their Qatar team that will qualify from the group, but alas!

The first group stage of this Asian Cup was all over, and in the end, the Uzbekistan team won all three games and ranked first in this group with nine points.

This was the case in the first two rounds of the group, with Japan and Jordan tied for top of the group with four points from one win and one draw, while Syria finished third with one win and one loss and three points, while Saudi Arabia lost the worst two games with zero points.

In this final round of matches, the Saudi Arabian team has been eliminated from the tournament and they have no chance. However, Syria, Japan and Jordan now all have a chance to qualify and be eliminated, and this final round is naturally a dead end between the three teams.

Japan, on the other hand, will be the easiest as they will face Saudi Arabia, the weakest team in the group, and it should be easy for Japan to beat Saudi Arabia.

Another group qualifier should be Syria and Jordan two teams stumbling, this game, whoever wins the two teams, who gets the right to qualify from the group, of course, if it draws, it is Syria that gets the right to qualify.

The two games kicked off at the same time, and it was only natural that Japan, Syria and Jordan were desperately fighting for the win, as none of them wanted to be eliminated.

The Japanese team showed their strong strength as soon as they came up, as if it was also at this time that the Japanese players were just getting into the groove, and just six minutes into the game, the Japanese team broke through the goal of the Saudi Arabian team, and the goal was scored by Shinji Okazaki.

Japan's strikers Shinji Okazaki and Ryokazu Maeda performed very well, and Shinji Okazaki completed a hat-trick for the first of the Asian Cup. Ryoichi Maeda, on the other hand, scored twice and provided an assist, which was amazing.

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

Bahrain is third in the group with two games, one win and one loss, and India is fourth in the group with zero points from both games.

India 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 this final round is very crucial.

One of the most crucial matches is the match between Australia and Bahrain, if Bahrain wins, Bahrain will advance, but Australia is not without a chance to qualify, as long as India beats South Korea, they also have a chance to qualify, but the chances of this are very small.

Of course, if South Korea loses to India and Bahrain beats Australia, South Korea may also be eliminated from the competition. Of course, if Bahrain loses, South Korea will advance no matter what.

Therefore, at this time, Australia, South Korea and Bahrain are not safe, and they all have to fight like crazy for this game, which will be a game like Mars hitting the Earth.

However, the strength of the Indian team is indeed too weak, and it is almost impossible for the South Korean team to lose. Therefore, the South Korean team should occupy a place to qualify.

And the game was also played like this, at the beginning of the game, India was completely powerless, and the South Korean team quickly grasped the initiative of the game and stormed the Indian team.

In the tenth minute of the first half of the game, the South Korean team broke through India's goal, Gu Zizhe went straight to the goal, Ji Dongwon pushed the long-range shot, and the South Korean team led 1-0.

In this game, the South Korean team's Koo Ji-cheol and Ji Dong-won performed very well, but the two turned the Indian team's defense upside down, and Ji Dong-won scored twice and completed an assist in this game. And Gu Zizhe scored a goal and handed out two assists.

In the end, South Korea defeated India 4-1 and qualified for 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 was also very good in order to qualify, often threatening their goal, they were almost broken by the opponent, but fortunately, they won 1-0 in the end.
