Chinese media ‘Jibo8’ reported on the 18th (Korean time), “Afghanistan and Syria declared abstention, and Uzbekistan and Hong Kong from the same group advanced to the round of 16 of the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.”
Uzbekistan and Hong Kong were placed in Group C of the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games along with Afghanistan and Syria. In the first match, Uzbekistan and Afghanistan were scheduled to face each other, in the second match, Hong Kong and Syria were scheduled to be played, in the third match, Syria and Uzbekistan, in the fourth match, Afghanistan and Hong Kong, and finally, Uzbekistan and Hong Kong and Syria and Afghanistan were scheduled to be played.
But things appear to have changed. The media reported that “Usbekistan and Hong Kong, along with Syria and Afghanistan, who are in the same group, have withdrawn from this competition.”
The media continued, “After the two countries announced their withdrawal from Asian Games soccer, the organizing committee and Asian Football Confederation (AFC) technical officials held a quick meeting and kept the rule that the team ranked second in the group will immediately advance to the round of 16 without changing the rules. “They announced that they have decided to implement it.”
In this competition, the two teams ranked 1st and 2nd in each group (total of 12 teams) and the 4 teams with the best results among the 3rd place in each group will advance to the round of 16, so the remaining two teams from Group C, which already had two teams eliminated, will advance to the round of 16. The interpretation is that it is heading towards.
The media added, “Uzbekistan and Hong Kong advanced to the round of 16 earlier than expected.”
Meanwhile, the Korean Asian Games team led by coach Hwang Seon-hong was in Group E along with Kuwait, Thailand, and Bahrain. Starting with the match against Kuwait on the 19th, Hwang Seon-hong will face Thailand on the 21st and Bahrain on the 24th.
