In the final round of Group A of the U20 Asian Cup, which ended on the evening of February 18, Beijing time, the Chinese national youth lost 1-2 to the Australian national youth and qualified as the second in the group for the second consecutive time.

Since they have both won 2 consecutive games and advanced in advance, both sides have rotated their lineups on a large scale in this game. The national youth team rotated six, while Australia rotated nine. In the first half, the national youth made a mistake in just 80 seconds from the 23rd to the 24th minute, and the consecutive backcourt passes were cut off, resulting in two goals in a row, and they fell behind 0-2 at the beginning.

Although 6 minutes later, Kuai Jiwen, who performed well in this U20 Asian Cup, pulled one back with a wonderful volley, but Yibian fought again, and Mao Weijie missed a great opportunity in a row. In the end, the national youth lost 1-2, with 2 wins and 1 loss, 6 points, and qualified as the second in Group A.

At present, China's opponent in the quarterfinals will be the first in Group B, which team has not yet been determined, and it is very likely to be produced between the three teams of Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Jordan.The match will start at 16:15 this Saturday (22nd), and the winner will qualify for the World Youth Championships, which was last 20 years ago in 2005.

However, the other two teams in the same half, Group C 2 and Group D 1, are likely to be defending champions Uzbekistan and South Korea based on the current standings. The national youth team is expected to avoid the favorites Iran and Japan before the final.

Considering that the national youth team played against South Korea in the qualifiers and drew 2-2 with Uzbekistan in the warm-up match in February, if the national youth team enters the top 4, it can expect to reach the final or even go further.
