The 2023 Asian Cup Professional Football Stadium and the 2023 Asian Cup were originally planned to be held in China. In order to run this Asian Cup well, all the venues have built modern stadiums and made a lot of efforts. Let's take a look at the 2023 Asian Cup professional football field.
2023 Asian Cup Professional Football Stadium 1 At present, the construction of the 10 stadium for hosting the 2023 Asian Cup, including Chongqing Longxing Football Stadium, is progressing steadily and is expected to be completed before 65438+ in February 2022.
Chongqing Longxing football field
As one of the venues of the 2023 Asian Cup, the construction of Chongqing Longxing Football Stadium has started, and it is expected to be fully completed in 2022. The design scheme of Longxing professional football field means "Fire Phoenix", which means that Chongqing people are passionate, fearless and enterprising. The appearance of the football field is shaped into a spiral posture, like a burning flame, symbolizing that China football is igniting the fire of hope.
Full of tension and dynamic lines, like a phoenix spreading its wings. Phoenix nirvana and rebirth symbolize the rise of China football from Chongqing, rushing out of Asia and going to the world from here.
The project covers an area of about 300 mu, and the audience seats can accommodate about 60,000 people. Venues include athletes' area, media area, VIP and box area, competition management area, venue operation and garage area, audience area, business area and other functions to meet the needs of hosting top international football events such as Asian Cup and World Cup, as well as Super League and AFC Champions League events.
At present, Longxing Football Stadium has entered the physical construction stage, and it is expected that the basement construction will be completed by the end of this year. Together with ground parking spaces, there will be 2400 parking spaces here in the future.
The project started construction on April 24 this year, and the site leveling was completed by the end of August, and the earthwork excavation of the foundation pit was completed by the end of September.
At present, the physical construction of the stadium is under way. It is expected to be completed in June 5438+ 10, and delivered in February 65438+2022.
After the completion of the project, in addition to hosting the 2023 Asian Cup football match, various international and domestic competitions will be introduced to build Longxing into the city's football competition center.
2023 Asian Cup Professional Football Stadium 2 The teams participating in the 2023 Asian Cup are as follows:
The top 40 teams directly advanced: China, Iran, South Korea, Syria, Iraq, United Arab Emirates, Lebanon, Qatar, Japan, Australia, Oman, Vietnam and Saudi Arabia.
The teams that advanced in the qualifying stage are: Thailand, Bahrain, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Jordan, Palestine, Malaysia, Indonesia, China, Hongkong, India and Uzbekistan.
According to the last rule, AFC will group teams according to the latest FIFA world rankings. The 24 teams are divided into 6 groups, with 4 teams in each group, and the "24-entry 16 competition system" is adopted, that is, the top two teams in 6 groups and the four teams with the best performance advance to the knockout stage with the third place.
Now according to the latest world (Asia) ranking, the files are as follows:
The first file: Iran, Japan, South Korea, Australia, Saudi Arabia, Qatar
The second batch: UAE, Iraq, Oman, China, Uzbekistan and Syria.
Third gear: Bahrain, Jordan, Kyrgyzstan, Vietnam, Lebanon and Palestine.
The fourth gear: India, Thailand, Tajikistan, China, Hongkong, Malaysia and Indonesia.
On the international match day last June, the China Men's Football Team didn't arrange any matches, so it didn't score a point. Even if it is surpassed by Uzbekistan's men's soccer team behind, China's men's soccer team can still rank second. Therefore, in the future group draw, China men's soccer team can avoid being in the same group as UAE, Iraq, Oman, Uzbekistan and Syria.
China Men's Football Team will automatically lose its status as the host country's seed team because it has given up the qualification to host. One of Iran, Japan, South Korea, Australia, Saudi Arabia and Qatar will be drawn, and Vietnam, Bahrain, Jordan and Lebanon may be drawn in the third place, and India, Thailand and Malaysia will be drawn in the fourth place.
2023 Asian Cup Professional Football Stadium 3 For the Asian Cup in 2023, the AFC did not make a final decision, which made the AFC very embarrassed, because they announced a new agreement, that is, the Asian Cup in 2023 will be postponed to July 15. According to South Korea, both Saudi Arabia and Qatar gave up. They only consider the Asian Cup in 2027. Now, they have no chance to return to China.
At the end of May, AFC officially announced the cancellation of China's right to host the 2023 Asian Cup, and sent letters of intent to member organizations, with the deadline of June 30, 2022.
At first, the Asian Cup was just a hot potato, but it soon became a hot topic. South Korea, Australia, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Indonesia are all interested in the 2023 Asian Cup.
In order to attract more countries to participate, AFC officially announced that it would submit its bid letter of intent before July 15. Now it seems that South Korea is the biggest favourite to win the championship, and the Korean football club is also actively preparing for the war, and it has the support of the government.
The last time the Korean men's soccer team held the Asian Cup was in 1960, when they won the Asian Cup as the host. The Korean Football Association has always wanted to win another Asian Cup on its own turf. Now, with a world-class superstar like Sun Xingyu, their winning percentage is even higher.
South Korea's NAVER said that the AFC received invitations from South Korea and Indonesia for the 2023 Asian Cup last month, and Australia was also preparing, but Qatar and Saudi Arabia both gave up their plans to bid for the 2023 Asian Cup.
Fortunately, South Korea, Indonesia and Australia are all interested in the Asian Cup in 2023, so the AFC will not delay. Considering the bidding attitude, professional football field, climate and other factors, South Korea is likely to bid for the 2023 Asian Cup.
Since China lost the Asian Cup, they have lost their home advantage. If they fall into the top 12 and the third echelon, it will be difficult to qualify.
