Iran Expected to Dominate Group C: AFC
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran, three-time champion and semi-finalist in 2019, will be expected to dominate Group C of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup.
Iran has been drawn in Group along with the UAE, Hong Kong and Palestine.
According to the-afc.com, Team Melli will be expected to dominate Group C, with the UAE - whose campaign ended at the last four stage on home soil four years ago - expected to seal the second automatic slot in the Round of 16.
Hong Kong and Palestine, however, will be fired up for the challenge of taking on two of the continent’s biggest teams.
