Notes 編輯

  1. ^ Timor-Leste was barred from participating in the Asian Cup qualification after being found to have fielded a total of 12 ineligible players in 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualification matches among other competitions.[4] However, as FIFA did not barred them from the World Cup qualifiers, Timor-Leste was still allowed to enter the competition, but was ineligible to qualify for the Asian Cup.
  2. ^ 2.0 2.1 Macau did not send their team for the second leg due to safety reasons following the 2019 Sri Lanka Easter bombings.[5] The AFC referred the matter to FIFA,[6] and FIFA announced on 27 June 2019 that the match was declared a 3–0 forfeit victory to Sri Lanka, and consequently qualifying Sri Lanka to the second round.[7]
  3. ^ Macau played their home match against Sri Lanka in Zhuhai, China, due to ongoing maintenance of Estádio Campo Desportivo.[8]
  4. ^ The home match of Malaysia against Timor-Leste, originally to be played on 6 June 2019, was later postponed due to Eid al-Fitr celebrations following a request from the Football Association of Malaysia.[9]
  5. ^ Timor-Leste played their home match against Malaysia in the latter country due to a lack of a suitable venue in their country.[10]
  6. ^ Pakistan played their home match against Cambodia in Qatar.[11]
