AFC U-22 Championship 2013 Qualifiers

3rd place wont be confirmed untill group E matches are over which is july 15th.

India came as the lowest ranked team (164) , they will go back with their held high doesnt matter what will be the final result.

results against philippines wont be counted in GD na?

ankit

Yaaa If we are not counting the matches then how can we count the same for GD?? In that way Malaysia's  GD becomes +4 and India's +2. We have to win against Oman and Malaysia has to loose. That would be sufficient for being 3rd best place team.

More than for the fans sake, this team has to qualify so that in the future they can build on this tournament. These players will be high in confidence if they participate in this competition so early in their careers and they can build on this experience to qualify for the Asian Cup in the future.

india vs oman is being played so early while iraq vs uae is being played after us........ more chances of that match being fixed   >:P

I agree with Archak. The rule is that the relevant final matches of a group be played simultaneously. This is bad
