A crunch Asian Games football fixture is on the cards as North Korea U23 will take on UAE (United Arab Emirates) U23 in their second game of the group stages (Group B). Both teams lost their opening fixtures and are looking to bounce back with a win to remain in contention for the knockouts.

The North Korea U23 national football team faced defeat against China U23, where Choe Kuk’s effort wasn't enough as they conceded twice in either half to give up the well-set lead. However, manager Kim Yong-jun will surely look on the brighter side as his team had the most possession and also created multiple chances in that game.

This was only their second defeat in 10 matches across all competitions, and they will look to come back to winning ways with a sound performance in the upcoming fixture.

The UAE U23 national football team lost 3-1 to current table toppers Iran U23, where Mackenzie Hunt scored the only goal for the team. They faced a defeat after an unbeaten run of seven games across all competitions, so Igor Biscan might want to mend things his way to get on track as soon as possible to keep their knockout hopes alive.
