2020 AFC U-23 Championship: Iran 0-0 Iraq
In Asian football, Iraq has qualified for the 2020 AFC Under-23 Championship, after holding Iran to a goalless draw at Azadi Stadium, in the last game of the group C of the qualifiers.
The Iraqi side, who had the advantage of superior goal difference over their hosts going into the Tuesday game, defended strongly and seemed content to rely on counterattacks.
The qualification hopes of the Iranians, who failed to make their greater share of possession and clearer goal scoring chances count, now hinges upon results from other groups tonight. The 11 group winners and four top second teams will advance to the 2020 games in Thailand.
