List Of Top Scores For The 2023 Asian Cup: Aymen Hussein Leads, But Threatened

JAKARTA - The 2023 Asian Cup has stepped in the last 16 and continues to present a number of names in the record for the top scorer. Aymen Hussein is currently the player on the top list.

The Iraqi bomber even managed to add to his goal in the round of 16 against Jordan. In Monday, January 29, 2024, Aymen Hussein contributed one goal to complete his collection to six goals.

However, his achievements will be threatened because in that match Aymen Hussein received a second yellow card. The player is considered to have provoked to buy time celebrating the goal.

Aymen Hussein's adventure in the 2023 Asian Cup officially ended. His collection of goals was stopped at six, especially since Iraq was also eliminated in the last 16.

Now, he is just waiting for the rest of the 2023 Asian Cup to see his fate as the top scorer to survive or be evicted.

Given that there are still a number of matches in the round of 16 to the final, this situation opens up opportunities for competitors to continue to pursue goal records.

Currently Aymen Hussein's closest competitor is Akram Afif from Qatar. Afif has scored four goals as he has scored one goal against Palestine in the last 16 of the 2023 Asian Cup.

Qatar is also still on its way to the quarter-finals so Afif still has a chance to add to his record of passing Aymen Hussein.

Apart from Afif, there are other players who can also be a threat in the hunt for the title of the top scorer. They are Ayase Ueda (Japan) and Lee Kang In (South Korea) who have both scored three goals and have not played a match in the last 16.
