Tajikistan’s Ergashev steps down; Ithsara sees bright future for Thailand

Doha: History was made but head head coach Mubin Ergashev felt no joy as Tajikistan bid farewell to the AFC U23 Asian Cup Qatar 2024™ on Monday.

The 1-0 win against Thailand was Tajikistan's first ever victory at the tournament but it wasn't enough to take them through after Iraq stunned defending champions Saudi Arabia 2-1 in their tie, with the two West Asian sides advancing to the quarter-finals.

Group C: Draw with Tajikistan ends Japan's reign

Bangkok: Champions Japan had their title defence dramatically ended at the group stage as they were eliminated from the AFC Futsal Asian Cup™ Thailand 2024 after a 1-1 draw with Tajikistan at Bangkok Arena on Monday.

Japan had never before failed to make the knockout stages but their stunning Matchday One defeat to eventual group runners-up Kyrgyz Republic proved their undoing and instead Tajikistan progress at their expense as Group C winners along with their fellow Central Asians who they finish above on goal difference.
