China, which is determined to eradicate the corona virus from the country, has also withdrawn from hosting the Asian Cup football tournament.

 

A statement from the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) said that China had withdrawn from hosting the 2023 scheduled Asian Cup due to the corona virus.

24 teams were to participate in the Asian Cup and its matches were scheduled in 10 different cities. The new host country will be announced later.

Remember that the Asian Cup is held every four years and Qatar won the 2019 tournament.

China hosted the Asian Cup for the second time, before the Yen hosted the event in 2004 and lost 1-3 to Japan in the final.

 

Corona virus situation in China

The Corona virus situation in China is not serious at the moment, but it is committed to eradicating the Corona virus from its country, which is why China has apologized for hosting international events and is paying close attention. The corona virus is on the verge of extinction.

To this end, lockdowns and large-scale corona testing are still being carried out in various cities in China.

Elsewhere in the world, Corona sanctions have been lifted, but China is adhering to the Zero Corona policy.

It is to be noted that before the Asian Cup, China has also given up hosting another major sporting event, the Asian Games, which was to be held in Hangzhou in September this year.

It should also be noted that the corona virus first appeared in the Chinese city of Wuhan, which was spread all over the world at a glance, due to which the world was subject to lockdown and other strict restrictions for almost 2 years.
