Here are the Asian Cup elimination standings after this week’s matches. Except for Group A*, each team has now played five of its six games, and the final games will be played March 5. The top two teams from each group will advance to the finals along with the best third-place finisher. AN ‘A’ IN FRONT OF A TEAM’S NAME MEANS IT HAS ADVANCED TO THE FINALS.
