According to the previous arrangement, the 24 teams participating in the second stage of the competition will be divided into 6 groups, with the top two in each group qualifying. However, according to the rules announced by the AFC today, these teams will have an away turn-based knockout match, and the final 12 winning team will advance to the third stage. Netease Sports1October 20th Report 10: Beijing time1October 20th morning, 20 12 The drawing ceremony for the first stage of the Asian qualifiers for the London Olympic Games was held at the AFC headquarters in Kuala Lumpur. The 22 low-level teams participating in the first stage will be divided into 1 1 groups for home and away elimination, and the winner will advance to the second stage. China did not participate in the draw this morning, because the draw for the Olympic qualifiers will be based on the result of the last soccer match in Beijing Olympic Games, because it participated in the Olympic Games as the host and will directly participate in the second stage of the competition. It is worth noting that according to the previous arrangement, the 24 teams participating in the second stage will be divided into 6 groups with 4 teams in each group, and the top two teams in each group will be qualified. However, according to the rules announced by the AFC today, these teams will have an away turn-based knockout match, and the final 12 winning team will advance to the third stage. For the Olympic team, the risk of playing this home and away knockout is undoubtedly greater. If you meet a strong opponent at this stage, or if you are in a bad state, you may not be able to enter the third stage. Unlike the group stage, you may have a chance to make up for one or two bad performances. According to the arrangement of AFC, the time of these two home and away games has been confirmed, which are June 9 and June 23 of 20 1 1 respectively. The 12 teams entering the third stage will be divided into three groups, with four teams in each group competing in the tournament system.
