the second round of the asian qualifiers for the world cup has ended. japan, iran and uzbekistan continued to maintain their undefeated record, south korea and jordan won their first victory, and the two asian champions, australia and qatar, continued to be winless. our national football team suffered two consecutive defeats at the start and continued to be at the bottom.

group c: japan leads with 2 consecutive wins, while china's national football team ranks last with 0 points after 2 consecutive losses

as the seeded team in this group, japan defeated china 7-0 at home in the first round, and then won another big victory away in the second round, eventually beating bahrain 5-0, winning two consecutive games and accumulating 6 points, continuing to lead the standings.

after saudi arabia was tied 0-0 by indonesia at home in the first round, it reversed the chinese national team 2-1 away in the second round, won its first victory and rose to second place with 4 points. bahrain fell to third place with 3 points in 2 rounds. indonesia tied with saudi arabia and australia and ranked fourth in the group with 2 points.

as the fourth strongest team in asia, australia has not won for two consecutive rounds. in the first round, they lost 0-1 to bahrain at home, and in the second round, they were tied 0-0 by indonesia away. with 1 point, they can only rank fifth in the group. they will return to their home court to face our national football team in the next round.

the performance of the chinese national football team was indeed disappointing, especially in this round, when they were leading by one goal at home and had one more player for a long time, they were defeated by saudi arabia 1-2 in the end. they lost two games in a row and accumulated 0 points, continuing to be at the bottom of the table, which made the situation of qualifying very grim. the only good news for the chinese national football team in this round was that indonesia and bahrain did not win, giving the chinese national football team a chance to catch up with the above two opponents.

group a: uzbekistan leads iran

in this group, iran is the seeded team. after a 1-0 win over kyrgyzstan in the first round, they won 1-0 again in the second round, earning 6 points with only 2 goals. however, they gave up the top spot because uzbekistan in the same group also won 2 consecutive games and scored more goals, and has risen to first place in the group.

as a two-time asian cup champion, qatar continued to perform poorly. despite leading by one goal and having one more player, they were tied 2-2 by north korea. after two consecutive defeats, they ranked fifth with one point. in addition, there is another team in this group that has lost two games in a row and has 0 points, which is kyrgyzstan.

group b: son heung-min scored 1 goal and 2 assists to lead south korea to its first win, 3 teams have 4 points each

as a seeded team, south korea was tied 0-0 by palestine at home in the first round, and then defeated oman 3-1 away in the second round. son heung-min contributed 1 goal and 2 assists, directly directing south korea's victory and winning its first victory.

because iraq was tied by kuwait, it has 4 points like south korea and jordan after 2 rounds. jordan's number of goals surpassed south korea and rose to first place in the group. iraq fell to third place in the group due to the goal difference. in addition, kuwait and palestine ranked fourth and fifth respectively. oman continued to be at the bottom with 0 points after 2 consecutive losses.
