The Asian Cup has come to the last eight stage and will start the fight on 2/2 and 2/3. Football matches are full of uncertainties, such as the group stage.
an upset (esp. in sports)
Beat the Japanese team and complete three consecutive victories of the Iraqi team, but in the round of sixteen stoppage time by the Jordanian team scored two goals reversed, once again verified the cruelty of the short-term game, the knockout rounds of each game is a new beginning, the previous game whether the scenery or woe is no longer important, the important thing is to face the immediate future, the next on the next to analyze each of the four matches of the quarterfinals of the possible direction of the game.
It's a complete dark horse showdown, Jordan are better, the best result in the Asian Cup in the team's history is the last eight, previously reached twice in 2004 and 2011, while the Tajik side is a real surprise, this is the first time in their team's history they have the opportunity to challenge for an international tournament, surprisingly, they came to the last eight, and the two dark horse's just meet, it will be a definite
advancement
The quarterfinals set the best record in team history, and before the tournament if anyone had said that one of the Tajiks and Jordan would
advancement
Getting to the Final Four was basically treated as an absolute joke.
And Tajik team in the first four games of the Cup are quite daring and opponents to play against the attack, the last round met the Grand Duchy of the United Arab Emirates in the game possession rate seems to be only 34, in fact, because of the first half on the lead before they began to reduce the possession of the ball to play counterattack, counterattacks create opportunities in fact quite a lot, but are not grasped to continue to twelve-yard battle before the narrow victory, can be clearly Tajik team offensive end of the bottleneck, on the other hand, Jordan! In contrast, Jordan's first four games, there are three games of possession is not higher than the opponent, but in addition to these three games to remain undefeated also made a total of up to 9 goals, which is three times as many as the Tajiks in the first four games of the total of 3 goals.
Conclusion in addition to Jordan's offensive end of the grasp ability is obviously better, in addition to the beginning of the Jordanian team in the last round of magical in the extra period reversal of Iraq, on the contrary, the Tajik team was tied in the extra period, in that kind of game at the end of the life and death moments, the Jordanian team may be better able to resist the pressure of the party, so this is optimistic about the Jordanian team to win!
In their last match, South Korea also came back from the dead in extra time to beat another Asian powerhouse, Saudi Arabia, in a 12-yard battle, which was the result of a poor performance in the early part of the match, but a late wake-up call to start a number of onslaughts.
Also have to praise the South Korean team's physical fitness is really quite good, can be in the opponent has appeared to fatigue is still alive and well, but the extension of the game in fact, obviously have the opportunity to kill the opponents did not seize the opportunity, a number of opportunities in front of the goal only to get a goal scoring results, so that the South Korean team's attacking end of the state has a lot of questions, after all, the defense they are still poorly, by the not very tall Saudi Arabia team! In the first half, the South Koreans scored a number of headers in one of their attacks, and if it wasn't for the crossbar twice, the South Koreans might not have been able to pull off the comeback, and now they're up against another Asian powerhouse, Australia, who are also known for their size.
For the Aussies, this match will also be their first real test of the Cup, with last round's opponents, Indonesia, barely managing to finish with the worst score of
advancement
In the last sixteen, their 4:0 victory was justified, but what is admirable about the Australian team is that they have actually been facing the problem of lineup change since the World Cup 2022, and they were not favored, but finally set the best record in the last sixteen in the history of the team, mainly because of the defense performance is quite good, when they won the game from Tunisia and Denmark with a score of 1:0 in a row, and from November last year, Australia played seven games. Australia has played seven matches in total, and in that time has only had one goal scored by the Uzbeks in the group stage.
In conclusion, the South Korean team has been relying on the offensive end to make up for the defensive negligence for three consecutive matches, this meets a particularly good defense of the Australian team is obviously not very good, in addition to the South Korean team, although the physical strength is amazing, but before the start of the game Australia than they have two days of rest, the conclusion of this is more optimistic about the Australian team a little bit!
