    AFC U20 Asian Cup China: Saudi Arabia secured their place in the AFC U20 Asian Cup China 2025 final after a dramatic penalty shootout victory over Korea Republic, following a goalless draw after 120 minutes in their semi-final clash at the Shenzhen Youth Football Training Base Centre Stadium on Wednesday.

    The match was a tense affair, with both teams struggling to break the deadlock during regular and extra time, leading to a nail-biting shootout.

    Korea Republic, seeking a record-extending 13th title, started with a surprise move, benching in-form striker Kim Tae-won. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia’s coach Marcos Soares made a notable change, giving Saud Al Tumbkti a start, with center-backs Saud Harun and Mohammed Barnawi both suspended.
