The reporter reported coldly The strongest team in this group on paper, the Australian U20 national youth team, has reached the top 8 in the previous two consecutive U20 Asian Cups. In the U19 Southeast Asia Cup last summer, Australia, which played with an all-local team, lost 0-1 to Thailand in the semi-finals and missed the final. However, this time in the U20 Asian Cup, the Australian team has called up 6 players to play in the European League, and the strength has been significantly improved. However, due to the club's refusal to let go, the biggest player in the Australian team, Bayern echelon goalkeeper Pavlovich, Celtic defender Bonetig, who participated in the Panda Cup in November last year, AEK defender Valcanis of Athens and Eindhoven youth striker Younis did not return to the team, resulting in the Australian U20 national youth team not being able to play with the strongest team.

Among Australia's six players in Europe, goalkeeper Hall plays for Brighton's U21 team in the Premier League, and central defender Esposito is the main echelon of the Lecce team in Serie A. Defender Agosti (Perugia, Serie C), midfielder Okon Engelst (Benfica, Portuguese Super League) and Liberian-born striker Moussa Toure (Clermont, Ligue 2) are all in the echelons of their respective clubs, with Toure joining Lannes in the Danish Super League in the winter window. Playing for Queens Park Rangers midfielder Benny and Ligue 2 Clermont Toure have both featured in the Championship and Ligue 2 this season.

Among Australia's overseas players, goalkeeper Hall and midfielder Okon Engelst have made it to the Under-23 national youth team, and Okon Engst also played in the Under-23 West Asia Cup last March. In the Chengdu Panda Cup last November, the U19 national youth team drew 1-1 with the Australian U20 national youth team, when striker Moussa Toure and midfielders Benny and Okon Engelst all started. With Okong captained the side and Benny also netted the equaliser, the national youth team should be familiar with all three. In last year's opening match against Kyrgyzstan in the same group of the Panda Cup, Moussa Toure also scored one goal.

In addition to the foreign players, the Australian team also has core players who have become the main force in the Australian Super League. Midfielder Bugalia has made nine glorious appearances for Perth this season, but has missed six consecutive appearances since the New Year. He scored four goals in the Panda Cup last year and was Australia's main attacker. His club team-mate, midfielder Palman, made six appearances and played all three games in the Panda Cup. The 18-year-old Portuguese-born attacking midfielder Quintar made 11 appearances for Melbourne City and even three in the AFC Champions League 2. He played in the U20 Asian Cup qualifiers in September last year and the Panda Cup in November, and was the main striker against the national youth team. Not surprisingly, they will form the main squad of the Australian team together with the foreign players.

The Kyrgyzstan Football Federation announced the list of 23 players to participate in the U20 Asian Cup on February 4, and conducted pre-match preparations in Shunde. Eight of them are from the Bishkek Snow Leopards, which compete in the country's professional league with Kyrgyzstan's national youth team. The Kyrgyzstan squad is not much different from last year's Panda Cup, and it is worth paying attention to the four foreign players. Defender Nastaev, who came off the bench against the national youth team in the Panda Cup, played for Sofia in the Bulgarian First Division. Another substitute defender, Ishnarev is 1.90 meters tall and has played in the lower leagues of England and Portugal.

The new centre-back captain Kidir Shayev joined the Slovak league team Trencen at the beginning of the year, after spending two years in Europe in the lower echelons of Spain. There is also Almazbekov, a striker who stayed in Europe last summer and played in the Kosovo and Ukrainian leagues, neither of whom participated in the Panda Cup, which is the secret weapon of Kyrgyzstan in the U20 Asian Cup.

Kyrgyzstan had some attacking power, and the Panda Cup could score two goals against the all-local Australian youth team, beating Mongolia 7-0, and Madanov scored a hat-trick. Against the national youth team, which is not the strongest lineup, it also forced the national youth team to lose on its own. Of the 11 starters and five substitutes who played against the national youth team in the Panda Cup, only the starting right wing-back Lazlov was not included in the Under-20 Asian Cup squad.
