North Korea yet to announce neutral ground for Malaysia tie

AFC will choose a venue if North Korea fails to name a neutral venue for their Asian Cup qualification match against Malaysia.

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) revealed on Tuesday that they are still waiting for North Korea's response regarding the neutral venue for their clash against Malaysia.

Malaysia are set to face North Korea on June 8th in their 2019 Asia Cup qualification match on a neutral ground after the recent political dispute between the two countries.

However, with North Korea yet to suggest a venue for the game, AFC may take action and will name the venue itself.
