Japan's Withdrawal Shocks Asian Cup; Saudi Situation Alarms the Samurai Blue

The Japan Football Association has threatened to withdraw from the Asian Cup if the security situation in Riyadh continues to deteriorate.

The Japanese Football Federation has threatened to withdraw from the Asian Nations Cup if the insecurity continues in Riyadh.

According to Ambassador Arjan, the news jp site reported today (Tuesday) that the security situation in Riyadh has caused the Japanese Football Federation to hesitate about participating in the Asian Nations Cup due to insecurity.

So far, 6 football federations have corresponded with AFC about the insecurity of Saudi Arabia in the 2027 Asian Cup.

Previously, a match in the Saudi Premier League was canceled due to security conditions. However, the Asian Football Confederation delayed and held the game last night between Nasr and Naftchi of Uzbekistan only one hour due to the warning of a missile attack on Riyadh.

AFC's insistence on holding football matches in the insecure conditions of Riyadh has worried all the participants in the 2027 Asian Cup.

12 people were killed and more than 300 people were injured in the retaliatory attacks of the Yemeni army on Riyadh's King Khalid Airport.

The Japanese site writes that the tension between Saudi Arabia and Yemen has increased. In this regard, the Japanese Football Federation officially announced that it will withdraw from the 2026 FIFA Electronic World Cup, which is scheduled to be held in Saudi Arabia.

According to the news jp website, the insecure situation in Riyadh has caused the Japanese Football Federation to refrain from traveling to this country, and if the deterioration of the situation in this country continues until January, it will affect the participation of the Japanese national football team in the 2027 Asian Cup.
