Elite round has started with two Italian teams: Pescara (host a group) but have tough opponents (Barcelona and serbian team Ekonomac); Luparense play in Hungary and can fight for the first place.

Other groups: the favourites are teams that host their group: the Portuguese Sporting CP (Group B) and the Spanish  Inter FS (the holders of the trophy)

Uefa Futsal Cup

Qualified at final four : Sporting CP  , FC Barcelona   and Győri ETO FC  

 

Last team will be decided between Inter FS and Kairat Almaty     

Disappoint for Italy, Luparense lost the decisive match in last 4 minutes (a draw would be enough).

We already have quarterfinals in the 2018 Asian Championships

 

Lebanon vs Iraq

Iran vs Thailand

Japan vs Bahrain

Vietnam vs Uzbekistan

 

today was very surprising that Iran beat Iraq today only 5-3 after two one-sided matches ! now I'm a bit worried about the Thailand match . they lost to Lebanon but that was just an accident. they are still a very very tricky opponent for Iran. for winning the title Iran has to go through all 3 main rivals. Thailand (QF), Uzbekistan (SF) and Japan !

Classic final in AFC futsal championship between  and  , Iran destroyed Uzbekistan 7-1 , while Japan over came Iraq 3-0 

[MHSN 3,619]

Iran beat Japan 4-0 for the 12th Asian title. but the match wasn't really easy, for whatever reason our players sometimes lose confidence against Japan. Japan was even a bit better before the 1st goal but when Iran scored in the last minute of the 1st half that was easy from then.

 

winning Asia is nothing new for Iran but this time they won it much easier, they are improved a lot since last tournament . interesting that one match changed our futsal , I'm talking about that Brazil match in World Cup 1/8 final.

Uzbekistan won bronze after defeating Iraq on penalties 4-2 , match ended 4-4

Uefa Futsal Cup

 

 Inter FS    beat Sporting CP (5-2) to claim fifth title UEFA Futsal Cup. They are only the second team to retain title.

Sporting suffer third final defeat.

 

 

Next the tournament 2018/2019 will become UEFA Futsal Champions League, while there will still be preliminary, main and elite rounds, played as one-venue mini-tournaments leading to the four-team finals, there will be a slight change to how those stages work.

 

Other news for next UEFA season: will be introduced new women's and men's youth U19 competitions

• A UEFA Women's Futsal EURO  starting in 2019.

• An Under-19 Futsal EURO Final Tournament September 2019 (Nation hosts will be announced on 27 September 2018, qualifying draw: 1 November 2018 )
