Six Teams Qualify For The 2023 Asian Cup Quarter-finals, Two Places Left

JAKARTA - The 2023 Asian Cup is just one step away from entering the quarter-finals. South Korea is the latest team to confirm its last eight.

South Korea's certainty of securing a place in the quarter-finals of the 2023 Asian Cup cannot be separated from their slick appearance. Facing Saudi Arabia at the Education City Stadium on Wednesday, January 31, 2024 in the morning, they won on penalties.

Having held back the Saudi Arabia series 1-1 to the 90th minute, Jurgen Klinsmann's team finally confirmed victory in the penalty shootout with a score of 4-2. Two Saudi Arabian executioners, namely Al-Najei and Ghareeb, failed to carry out their duties.

This victory made South Korea the sixth team to advance to the quarter-finals. Furthermore, in the last eight they will clash against Australia, which had already qualified after defeating the Indonesian national team with a score of 4-0.

After South Korea successfully qualified for the quarter-finals, it means that only two more places will be up for grabs on Wednesday, January 31, 2024.

Two tickets to the quarter-finals will be a fight between Bahrain vs Japan and Iran vs Syria.
