Soccer for National Teams: Asian Cup, Summary and Data
Information about the Asian Cup with the last 10 winners of the competition, the national teams with the most trophies won in the history of the tournment and an index to every final played.
The AFC Asian Cup is a soccer competition run by the Asian Football Confederation. The winning national team is proclaimed champions of Asia and qualifies for the FIFA Confederations Cup.
The Asian Cup has been held once every four years from 1956 onwards. However, as the Summer Olympic Games and the European Soccer Championship are also held in the same year as the Asian Cup (2004, 2008, 2012 etc.), the sporting calendar is somewhat crowded. The AFC have thus decided to change their tradition, and will be holding the next tournament in 2007, and every four years henceforth from that date.
Finals: 2023 - 2019 - 2015 - 2011 - 2007 - 2004 - 2000 - 1996 - 1992 - 1988 - 1984 - 1980 - 1976 - 1972 - 1968 - 1964 - 1960 - 1956
