JAKARTA - The first matchday of the 2023 Asian Cup group phase was completed in line with the end of the match between Saudi Arabia vs Oman on Wednesday, January 17, 2024, early morning WIB. Of the 12 matches that were held, there were players who successfully listed names on the list of the most goalscorers.

After the first matchday was over, the leaders of the list of the most goalscorers were those who could score a brace (two goals) against the opponent in the opening match. Noted, there are six players who are able to do this.

The Thai player, Supachai Jaided, was able to score a Japanese star, Takumi Minamino.

In addition to the two names, there were four other players who managed to score two goals for each team. They are Akram Afif (Qatar), Mahmoud Al Mardi and Musa Al Taamari (Yordania), and Kang-in Lee (South Korea).

The goal earned by the players clearly has a vital role in winning their respective countries in the inaugural match.

Afif's two goals allowed Qatar to beat Lebanon with a score of 3-0. Minamino is also the key to Japan's success in overcoming Vietnam's resistance with a score of 4-2.

Al Mardi and Al Taamari both scored two goals against Malaysia and made Jordan win 4-0. Meanwhile, Supachai was able to buy Thailand's winning goal over Kyrgyzstan with a score of 2-0.

Although a number of these players have managed to list names in the 2023 Asian Cup temporary top score list, the competition map for now is still unpredictable.

There are still two group stage matches left for the players to score more goals and compete with other names.
