The fate of Cooper’s team will now depend on the results in other groups
Syria managed to put the squeeze on India and won with a minimal score over the outsider of Group B Asian Cup 2023 – 1:0.
In this low-scoring group, the Syrians scored their first goal in three rounds. By the way, Hector Cooper’s team missed the same amount.
Substitute Omar Khirbin delivered an accurate shot at the Indian goal, resulting in a noticeable advantage for the Kasiun Eagles.
This victory allowed the Syrians to score four points and finish in third place in their quartet. Considering the regulations (the four best third places from six groups advance to the playoffs), Cooper’s team’s chances of reaching the 1/8 finals are quite high. However, she will have to wait for favorable results in other groups.
The first two places in Quartet B were taken by the national teams of Australia and Uzbekistan.
