The Asian Cup, which was scheduled to be held in Saudi Arabia in January next year, has ultimately been postponed to December next year due to regional instability.
Amid growing instability in the host country Saudi Arabia following recent attacks by Houthi rebels, the Asian Football Confederation announced just a week after releasing the match schedule that the tournament would be postponed to December next year for safety reasons.
Attention is also focusing on the future of interim national football team coach Moreno, whose accompaniment to the Asian Cup was set to be decided after leading the two-match away friendly series in the Middle East. The Korea Football Association stated that it will proceed with the evaluation of coach Moreno following the friendlies as originally scheduled.
