The AFC Asian Cup 2007 has kicked off! This is probably the first ever major sporting event around the world to be co-hosted by 4 countries (Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam)… the first match in Malaysia will be held on Tuesday (July 10) at Bukit Jalil Stadium, with Malaysia playing against China.
I felt that the publicity for the event is quite poor in Malaysia; I don’t see many banners around the city, and I don’t see many advertisements about the tournament on TV or newspapers. Hopefully the stadium won’t be too empty during the matches.
Below is the schedule of the matches (in Malaysia)…
July 10 (2035) - Malaysia vs China (Bukit Jalil)
July 11 (1820) - Iran vs Uzbekistan (Bukit Jalil)
July 14 (1820) - Malaysia vs Uzbekistan (Bukit Jalil)
July 15 (1820) - China vs Iran (Bukit Jalil)
July 18 (2035) - Malaysia vs Iran (Bukit Jalil)
July 18 (2035) - China vs Uzbekistan (Shah Alam)
July 22 (1820) - Quarter final (Bukit Jalil)
July 25 (1820) - Semi final (Bukit Jalil)
