At this moment on December 8, as the World Cup quarterfinals competition unfolds, only eight teams are left to advance to the semi-finals of this soccer event. With the six teams representing Asia having withdrawn from the tournament, the position of the Chinese men's soccer team in Asia after the World Cup has basically become clear. The Li Tie-coached team seems to have left a few shadows of defeat that are hard to erase, but the Chinese men's soccer team still seems to be able to suppress rivals such as India, Cambodia, and the Maldives in the Asian context. !

Japan and South Korea are firmly at the top of Asian soccer, while Iran and Saudi Arabia occupy the second tier. Oman, Qatar and the UAE make up the third tier, while Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, North Korea and Uzbekistan follow. As for Vietnam, Kuwait, Jordan, Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia and Tajikistan, they are categorized in the fourth tier. !

In the face of these opponents, they always harbor the dream of striking the next World Cup. It is reported that 8.5 places will be allocated for the next World Cup in Asia. As long as the players of the national team can focus on the soccer itself rather than the extraneous trivialities of the outside world, such as sea cucumbers, hairstyles and hidden balls, they are still expected to represent the likes of Brazil and Portugal on the Asian World Cup stage.
