2010 FIFA World Cup qualification – AFC second round
This page provides the summaries of the AFC second round matches for the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification.
Format
[edit]Among the 19 winners of the first round, the 11 highest ranked teams (according to the first round seeding) received a bye and advanced to the third round of the Asian qualifiers (along with the five teams directly seeded to the third round). The eight remaining first round winners played in this round. Those ranked 16–19 were randomly drawn against teams ranked 12–15, and the draw (which allocated positions in the draw by seeding only) took place on 6 August 2007 in the AFC House in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.[citation needed]
