The 2027 Asian Cup in Saudi Arabia has been postponed because of a series of deadly attacks on the host country.

The 24-team tournament was scheduled to take place from 7 January to 5 February but has been rescheduled to run from 23 December, 2027 to 21 January, 2028.

In October, a missile attack by Yemen's Houthi movement on Riyadh's airport killed 13 people and wounded more than 300.
