The technical score of AFC depends on the performance of both the club and the national team. At present, the AFC's technical scoring rules are mainly based on club achievements, and the scoring method of club achievements accounting for 90% and national team achievements accounting for 10% is adopted to count the competition achievements of national teams and clubs in recent four years. At present, Asia 1 is still the United Arab Emirates, with a score of 95.549, which has a clear lead and ranks first. South Korea ranks second in Asia and is the highest ranked country in East Asia. The ranking has not changed compared with the previous period, with a score of 88.043. China surpassed Qatar and ranked third in Asia with 85.335 points. There is not a big gap between China and South Korea, so the year-end ranking may surpass South Korea and rise to East Asia 1. Qatar ranked 4th in Asia with 82.89 points.
Saudi Arabia ranked fifth in Asia with 82.448 points. Japan ranks 6th in Asia with a score of 80.772, not far from China, but it is unlikely to surpass China this year. Iran ranks 7th in Asia with a score of 7 1.545438+0. Australia ranked eighth in Asia with 63.044 points. Uzbekistan ranked 9th in Asia with 43.737 points. Thailand ranked 10 in Asia with a score of 42.2 18.
The year-end ranking of technical points of AFC member countries this year will determine the quota allocation of AFC Champions League in 20 19 season and 2020 season. If China's current ranking remains at 1 1 this year, then according to the relevant regulations on the allocation of AFC Champions League places, starting from the following year, China's AFC Champions League places will be "3+ 1" for two consecutive seasons, and now it is "2+2". It is worth mentioning that China was the AFC member country that scored the most points in 20 17, and now it has scored 23.900 points (after conversion), making it the only AFC member country that scored more than 20 points in 20 17. The reason why we can get such a high score is related to the excellent record of the Super League team in this year's AFC Champions League and China's defeat of South Korea, Uzbekistan and Qatar in the 12 competition. All the Super League BIG3 teams participating in this year's AFC Champions League group stage qualified, two Super League teams reached the AFC Champions League quarter-finals, and Shanghai went to Shanghai to advance to the AFC Champions League quarter-finals. From 20 1 1 to 20 16, the annual technical scores of China were 6.75, 9.333, 17.25, 9.25, 15.75 and 14.75 respectively.
The next AFC Champions League is crucial for China to maintain the second place in East Asia. If Urawa Red Diamond reaches this year's AFC Champions League final or even wins the championship, it may lead to Japan's ranking in AFC Champions League year-end points surpassing China. If Shanghai goes to Shanghai to advance to the AFC Champions League final or even win the championship, then China will probably not only maintain the second position in East Asia in the AFC Champions League year-end technical score, but also become the highest ranked member in East Asia. Not surprisingly, in the AFC Champions League in 20 19 season and 2020 season, China should get a "3+ 1" quota.
