If football ever has an antonym it is "zhongguo zuqiu" (which means Chinese football)

Just ignore me, I'll see myself out.

For anybody who's interested, Paramount+ is streaming the AFC in the US.

Let's go Hong Kong!

Australia and Syria were implementing Allegri-esque football lol. Only fitting that it finishes 1-0!

Palestine almost staged a big upset against Emirates. Honestly they had so many chances but just were super wasteful and should have won. The UAE goalkeeper made a lot of good saves.

Hopefully Hong Kong get a result vs Palestine, id really love that.

Another dreadful performance by the Aussies, corto muso’d our way to a 1-0 win against a dogshit Syria team. On to the KO rounds we go, but this team will crumble against the likes of Korea, Japan or Iran.

Iraq is staging a biiiiiig upset against Japan as we speak. 2-0 and playing super resilient too. Let's go Lions!

I forgot to post here but I was going to say that there are always upsets when east Asian teams come across to the middle east. I fancy one of the regional teams to win it, maybe Iran or the hosts.

There was alarm bells when Vietnam made a game of it vs Japan

You'd think Japan would know of these conditions considering their achievements at the last World cup

Heart attacks at the dying minutes of the game... Iraq's GK is terrible and he's the captain...

What a victory vs. Japan (the big favorites). Perfect game plan too. I also don't remember the last time Japan lost internationally so this is a massive result too.

I've seen it so many times with them, they often lack a cutting edge. Just pass it around to death. Ok they are missing a couple of difference makers but at AC level it's funny.

Cant say I'm expecting much from HK vs Iran later, hopefully HK will save their best performance vs Palestine. But considering its their first Asian cup since 1968 and the lowest ranked team in the tournament, I was pretty proud of what I saw of them vs UAE

Decent performance from HK that first half, had 2 glorious chances to score, Iran look shakey at the back

unbelievable heart and spirit from Hong Kong there, Nunez at the back was a rock, unfortunately undone by one moment of quality from Iran, seriously impressed with their pressing game and really unlucky not to have scored at least. I really would love to see them get a win now against palestine, and I think this game v Iran proves that they're not just here to make up the numbers. Really proud of them.

do you and @s4tch think the inter marotta mafia was involved in the match here. is the hong kong team sponsored by juve and this was an attempt to hurt juve?

 

[JuveJay]

Well the ref is from Syria...

Taking the meaning of Iran and its Proxies to a while new level.

I could say the same about the first game vs UAE 3 dodgy Var calls used against Hong Kong. Marotta was protecting his new asset, Taremi.
