Asian Cup

Afghanistan vs Myanmar: Team News and Expert Analysis
Afghanistan has never been highly regarded in the football world – the country often has more pressing concerns than sports. This time, too, their results have been extremely modest. It is clear that another debut at the Asian Cup will be postponed – they managed only two draws against another group outsider, Pakistan.
The Myanmar national team has only one Asian Cup appearance in its history – but back in 1968, they reached the final. They haven’t qualified for such tournaments since, and this time lost both matches to Syria. However, they did defeat both Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The home side scores an average of 0.4 goals while conceding 1.6. Their guests score 1.1 goals per game but concede twice as many, 2.2.
