The Asian Futsal Cup, which began on January 27th, has concluded today. Host Indonesia advanced to the historic final, presenting a real "nervous battle" on parquet against the reigning champion Iran. It was noted that the tournament was held in Indonesia from January 27 to February 7, and Iran won its next championship.
The final match left the spectators "without sleep" from the first minutes: goals came one after another, the tempo didn't fall, there were enough mistakes in defense and skill in attack. In the first half, the hosts took the lead with a score of 3:2 - and the stands erupted as if saying "Now history is being written!"
In the second half, the Persians returned to the game with their characteristic coolness. The score equalized, then the hosts took the lead again, but just before the end of the match, Iran responded again, bringing the match to 4-4. At that moment, both on the field and in the hall was the same mood: "This game isn't over yet."
In the additional sections, no one backed down. Both teams gave their all - one more goal was scored, and the winner was decided by a penalty shootout. In the decisive moments, Iran demonstrated experience and resilience to pressure - winning the "lottery" with a score of 5:4, winning the continental championship title for the 14th time.
The biggest conclusion of this final is this: Indonesia, as the host country, demonstrated not only the atmosphere but also the character. Iran, as usual - no matter how difficult it is, proved once again that they are a team that "won't give up the trophy" in the final. Now a question for the fans: who will respond to their pace in the next tournament?
