AFC World Cup Qualifiers recap: Round 4

Japan 1:1 Australia

Tony Popovic has rejuvenated the Socceroos as they end Japan's winning streak in the World Cup qualifiers and earn a point in a 1 - 1 draw played out in Saitama, Japan. The blue samurai were the clear favourites and dominated the entire game as is evident from the number of shots they took 12, while Australia took only one shot throughout the game. Funnily enough, both teams opened their scoring with two dramatic own goals. This draw doesn't seem to hurt Japan as they're still table toppers while it proves to be a major moral boost for the Subway Socceroos. Goal scorer for Japan: Cameron Burgess (OG) Goal scorer for Australia: Shogo Taniguchi (OG)

Korea Republic 3:2 Iraq

South Korea secured three crucial points on Tuesday with a hard-fought victory against Iraq. The Iraqi defense held firm for most of the first half, but Se Hun Oh broke the deadlock in the 41st minute, putting Korea ahead. Iraq quickly responded in the second half, equalizing through Aymen Hussein's swift strike. However, their joy was short-lived, as South Korea doubled the lead by the 83rd minute, effectively sealing the outcome. In the dying moments of stoppage time, Ibrahim Bayesh managed to narrow the deficit for Iraq, but it was too late. The win keeps South Korea atop the group standings, while Iraq remains in third place. Goal scorers for South Korea: Se Hun Oh, Hyun-gyu Oh, Jae-sung Lee Goal scorers for Iraq: Aymen Hussein, Ibrahim Bayesh

China PR 2:1 Indonesia

China ended their losing streak in the FIFA World Cup qualifier on Tuesday with a much-needed victory over Indonesia. Team Garuda despite being lower ranked than China were undoubtedly the better team on the field. Indonesia didn't allow China to relax even once during the entire game however they were rather lackluster in front of goal and China took advantage of that. China had two big chances in the entire 90 minutes and they scored from both of them. While Indonesia did manage to pull one back in the 86' minute but it was already too late for them to salvage a point. Despite winning the game, China remains at the very bottom of the group while Team Garuda stays at 4th place, just above China. Goal scorers for China: Baihelamu Abuduwaili, Yuning Zhang Goal scorer for Indonesia: Thom Haye

Kyrgyzstan 1:0 DPR Korea

Kyrgyzstan stunned North Korea to earn their first three points in the FIFA World Cup qualifier. The match was closely contested, with both teams evenly matched and pushing each other to the limit. While North Korea displayed a slightly stronger performance overall, it was Kyrgyzstan that came out on top, thanks to a well-placed bottom-right shot from centre-back Christian Brauzman. Despite having several opportunities to equalize, North Korea struggled to convert their chances, allowing Kyrgyzstan to secure a crucial victory. Goal scorer for Kyrgyzstan: Christian Brauzman

Uzbekistan 1:0 United Arab Emirates

The UAE faced a defeat against Uzbekistan in their World Cup Qualifier match, where the latter displayed complete dominance throughout the game. The UAE struggled to implement their game plan effectively, and their situation worsened after receiving a red card in the second half. This setback ultimately led to a penalty, which proved to be the deciding factor between the two teams. With this victory, Uzbekistan remains in close contention with group leaders Iran, while the UAE currently holds third place in the group. Goal scorer for Uzbekistan: Otabek Shukurov

Palestine 2:2 Kuwait

Juan Pizzi's Palestine managed to secure a point from a losing position in their World Cup Qualifier match against Kuwait. The game was evenly contested, with both teams creating numerous opportunities but failing to convert most of them. Kuwait had a prime chance to secure their first victory in the qualifiers after Palestine's Camilo Saldaña was sent off in the second half. However, Zaid Qunbar's late heroics enabled Palestine to rescue a point. Both Palestine and Kuwait remain at the bottom of the group, having yet to win any of their four matches. Goal scorers for Palestine: Wessam Abou Ali, Zaid Qunbar Goal scorer for Kuwait: Yousef Nasser

Jordan 4:0 Oman

Jordan dominated Oman in their World Cup qualifier match, delivering a decisive 4-0 victory in a one-sided affair. Despite controlling possession for much of the game, Oman struggled to challenge the Jordanian defense, while Jordan's forwards relentlessly pressured the Omani backline. This emphatic win propelled Jordan to second place in the group, overtaking Iraq, while Oman remains in fourth place. Goal scorers for Jordan: Yazan Al-Naimat, Ali Olwan

IR Iran 4:1 Qatar

In a surprising turn of events, the reigning champions of Asia, Qatar, suffered a heavy defeat against Team Melli. Despite taking an early lead in the first half with a brilliant strike from Almoez Ali, Qatar's advantage quickly faded. Ali's goal appeared to ignite Iran's response, as they went on to score four unanswered goals. This defeat serves as a harsh lesson for Qatar, now facing the risk of missing out on World Cup qualification. Meanwhile, Iran continues to solidify its position at the top of the group. Goal scorers for Iran: Sardar Azmoun, Mohammed Mohebi Goal scorer for Qatar: Almoez Ali

Saudi Arabia 0:0 Bahrain

Mancini's Saudi Arabia failed to meet expectations, as they were held to a surprising 0-0 draw by Bahrain in the final match of Round 4 of the World Cup Qualifiers. Despite dominating possession and applying consistent pressure on the Bahraini defence, Saudi Arabia could not convert their chances into goals. They were awarded a penalty in the first half, presenting an opportunity to take an early lead; however, Salem Al Dawsari's shot was saved by the impressive Ebrahim Lutfalla, who was rightfully named Player of the Match. Bahrain's attack posed little threat to the Saudi backline, as they focused on containing the relentless Saudi assault. In the end, Bahrain secured a crucial point against a stronger opponent, while Roberto Mancini faces increasing scrutiny and the potential risk of dismissal for failing to deliver results.

As a cover for injured Axar Patel for the Asia Cup Final, Washington Sundar called up

As cover for injured Axar Patel Washington Sundar has been called for the Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka on Sunday. On Friday, Axar sustained several injuries during India's six-run loss to Bangladesh in their last Super Four match. The extent of his injuries is currently unknown, and hence, bowling all-rounder Washington, who was part of India's Asian Games squad, has been called up as a precautionary measure.

As per the statement by the BCCI official, "Axar is currently suffering from multiple injuries. He has hurt his little finger, got hit on the forearm by a throw from deep, and most importantly, has developed a hamstring niggle. So Washington has been called."

More than the swelling on his forehand, it is the hamstring issue of Axar that will keep the Indian team management worried with just three weeks to go for the World Cup. Washington, who bowls off-spin, last played an ODI at home against New Zealand in January this year.

Asia Cup 2023 : ‘हम भारत को दुनिया के किसी भी कोने में हरा सकते हैं’, महा-मुकाबले से पहले पूर्व पाकिस्तानी दिग्गज का बड़ा बयान

Asia Cup 2023 : आगामी एशिया कप में एक बार फिर से दो चिर-प्रतिद्वंदी टीमें भारत और पाकिस्तान (IND vs PAK) के बीच महा-मुकबला होने वाला है. यह मैच 2 सितम्बर को श्रीलंका में खेला जायेगा. उससे पहले पाकिस्तान के पूर्व दिग्गज गेंदबाज और पूर्व में कोच रह चुके वकार युनिस (Waqar Younis) ने इस मुकाबले को लेकर बड़ी प्रतिक्रिया दी है.

उन्होंने कहा है कि पाकिस्तानी टीम में इतनी क्षमता है कि वो भारत को दुनिया के किसी भी कोने में हरा सकती है और वो 2017 के चैम्पियंस ट्राफी (Champions Trophy 2017) में ओवल के मैदान पर यह चीज साबित भी कर चुकी है.

ट्राफी के अनावरण के दौरान दिया बयान

इसबार एशिया कप (Asia Cup 2023) की मेजबानी पाकिस्तान के पास है. ऐसे में टूर्नामेंट की ट्राफी के अनावरण के लिए एक इवेंट का आयोजन किया गया. टूर्नामेंट का मेजबान होने के नाते ट्राफी का अनावरण भी पाकिस्तान में किया गया. इस इवेंट में वकार युनिस ने भी हिस्सा लिया. जहाँ पर उन्होंने यह बयान दिया.

वकार ने कहा, हमारे समय में हम बड़े मैचों में भारत से नहीं जीत पाते थे. लेकिन अब अच्छी बात यह है कि अब हमने बड़े मैचों में भी भारत को हराना शुरू कर दिया है. उन्होंने कहा कि पाकिस्तानी टीम को मेरी यही सलाह है कि वो बस अच्छा खेले. जिस तरह का टैलेंट हमारे पास है, अगर हम अपने पोटेंशियल से खेलें तो फिर भारत को बिल्कुल हरा सकते हैं.

हम भारत को कही भी हरा सकते हैं- वकार युनिस

वकार युनिस के मुताबिक पाकिस्तानी टीम भारत को दुनिया के किसी भी कोने में हरा सकती है. उन्होंने कहा, इससे फर्क नहीं पड़ता है कि इंडियन टीम कहां खेलती है. अगर हम उन्हें ओवल में हरा सकते हैं तो फिर कहीं भी हरा सकते हैं. टैलेंट हमारे पास है, बस हमें टाइगर्स की तरह खेलने की जरूरत है.”

आपकों बता दें कि दुबई में खेले गए टी20 वर्ल्ड कप 2021 में पाकिस्तान ने 10 विकेट से जीत हासिल कर वर्ल्ड कप में पहली बार भारत को हराया था. उसके बाद पिछले साल खेले गए एशिया कप में भी पाकिस्तान ने भारत को हराया था. हालांकि टी20 वर्ल्ड कप 2022 में टीम इंडिया ने एक रोमांचक जीत हासिल की थी.
