KVSP China vs. Tajikistan, AFC Asian Cup 2024: How to watch, live stream, schedule, standings, dates, kickoff times
Written by Lucky Wilson | KJMM.COM on January 13, 2024
Qatar is hosting the AFC Asian Cup for the third time. The tournament got underway on Jan. 12 when the hosts defeated Lebanon in the opener. While historically the tournament has been held during the summer, due to the heat in the country, the tournament was moved to the winter of 2024, similarly to the scheduling when the nation held the 2022 World Cup. As a result, clubs will be without key players for the 18th edition of the tournament as Qatar also look to retain their title after winning in 2019. But with improvement from Japan and South Korea, that could be a tough task. Here’s what to know:
