The Yemeni youth national team began its journey in the Asian Cup qualifiers in an ideal way after achieving a valuable away victory over the Kyrgyz Republic national team with two goals to nil, in the match that brought them together today at the capital Bishkek stadium as part of the Group B competitions. Despite the home side's advantage in the opening minutes, the Yemeni team managed to gradually impose its rhythm, before player Saber Sanad managed to break the tie by scoring the opening goal in the 56th minute, capitalizing on an accurate pass that he translated with a calm technical touch inside the net. The goal gave the Yemeni players a great morale boost, so they advanced to press and create more opportunities. Three minutes before the end of the match, player Seilan Bashir fired the shot of reassurance by scoring the second goal in the 87th minute, after a coordinated attack that he dealt with with high concentration, to guarantee Yemen a well-deserved victory and reap the first three points at the beginning of the Asian journey. With this victory, the Yemeni team is steadily advancing in its group, which includes the teams of Guam, Cambodia, Pakistan, and Laos, where qualification for the Asian finals is limited to the first-place team only, which gives the victory double importance and enhances Yemen's chances of serious competition for the qualifying card. Our national youth team will play its second match the day after tomorrow, Monday, against the Guam national team, in a match in which it hopes to continue its positive results and consolidate its strong presence in the tournament.
