Iran coach Carlos Queiroz believes that among the teams competing in the 2019 Asian Cup, there are three teams that will "surely" reach the semi-finals.

The Portuguese coach admitted that Iran's goal is the semi-finals but the opening match against Yemen will also be very difficult.

“We are 100% ready for the Asian Cup and the whole team believes in our abilities. We are preparing for the opening match against Yemen and it is a difficult match against Iran. Then we will think about Vietnam and Iraq,” the former Real Madrid and Portugal coach shared.

“Iran’s goal is definitely to reach the semi-finals. Teams like defending champions Australia, Japan, and South Korea will almost certainly reach the semi-finals, while teams like Iran, Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan, and China will compete for the remaining spot,” Carlos Queiroz said.

Carlos Queiroz's assessment is well-founded because Australia is the defending champion of the tournament, Japan holds the record of 4 championships, while Korea is of course one of the few strongest teams in Asia.
