The Asian Football Confederation has confirmed that the 2027 AFC Asian Cup, which was scheduled to be held from Jan. 7 to Feb. 5, will be postponed due to regional security concerns.
Cristiano Ronaldo is being rested for Al Nassr's AFC Champions League trip to Uzbekistan amid concern that the security situation in Saudi Arabia will continue to impact Asia's top soccer tournaments.
