Although this is just a reference choice, the presence of central defender Que Ngoc Hai of the Vietnam National Team in this squad shows the international recognition of our football.
Below is the 3-4-3 formation.
Goalkeeper: Ignatity Nesterov (Uzbekistan)
Not only is he the first player to participate in the tournament 5 times, Ignatiy Nesterov of Uzbekistan is also one of the best goalkeepers at the 2019 Asian Cup to date.
The 3-year-old made a series of saves in the 2-1 win over Oman and continued his form in the group stage.
Center back: Bassam Al-Rawi (Qatar)
As one of the hopes of Qatari football at the moment, Bassam Al-Rawi shined when given the opportunity by Felix Sanchez Bas.
Al-Rawi scored against Lebanon, but his solidity in defence was the most worth mentioning.
Center back: Kim Min-jae (Korea)
It is no surprise that Kim Min-jae has caught the attention of several European sides.
The 22-year-old defender is able to dress well and is rarely defeated in one-on-one situations. It is worth mentioning that Kim has scored 2 goals in 3 matches.
Center back: Que Ngoc Hai (Vietnam)
The Vietnamese team may have had a hard time entering the round of 16, but few people denied our progress.
The wonderful thing is that Coach Park Hang-seo's team is led by captain Que Ngoc Hai, at a time when we did not have Tran Dinh Trong, while Do Duy Manh played somewhat declining compared to previous tournaments.
Right winger: Tristan Do (Thailand)
With his current form, it is difficult to believe that Tristan Do has been "frozen" by former Thailand head coach Milovan Rajevac for the past year.
It seems that the 3-4-3 formation is very suitable for his playing style and Tristan will continue to be a threat to the Chinese team in the round of 16.
Defensive midfielder: Khalil Bani Attiah (Jordan)
Jordan surprised everyone by defeating Australia and Syria to become the first team to reach the round of 16.
They are not lacking good players but Khalil Bani Attiah really stood out when helping the defense keep a clean sheet in 3 matches.
left winger: Ali Adnan ( Iraq)
Ali Adnan is one of the most impressive faces at the 2019 Asian Cup, not to mention he is also playing in Serie A.
He had the decisive free kick to bring Iraq a 3-2 victory over Vietnam in the opening match.
Attacking midfielder: Chanathip Songkrasin (Thailand)
After a poor start, Thailand and Chanathip Songkrasin changed to win tickets to the round of 16.
However, the midfielder who played at Consadole Sapporo did not disappoint with the only goal scored against Bahrain.
Right striker: Eldor Shomurodov (Uzbekistan)
Eldor Shomurodov came off the bench to score the decisive goal in the 85th minute against Oman and has since scored three more goals in two more games.
Although 1.9m tall, the 23-year-old player currently playing for Rostov has very good technique and speed.
left striker: Almoez Ali (Qatar)
In just 3 matches, Almoez Ali has scored 7 goals and is only 1 goal behind Ali Daei's scoring record in the entire tournament.
The Al Duhail striker collaborated well with Akram Afif and helped Qatar hope to go far.
Striker: Sardar Azmoun (Iran)
Iran remains one of the tournament's candidates and their status is thanks to Sardar Azmoun, the striker who withdrew his decision to leave the national team after the 2018 World Cup.
It is hard to believe that Sardar is only 24 years old but is already an indispensable pillar of Iran.
