The Asian Football Confederation's Asian Cup 2004 finals were held in the People's Republic of China between July 17 and August 7. Defending champion Japan national football team|Japan defeated host nation China national football team|China in the final match in Beijing.

The tournament was marked by Saudi Arabia's unexpected failure to even make it out of the first round; a surprisingly good performance by Bahrain, which finished in fourth place; and Iraq, which reached the quarterfinals. The final match between China and Japan was marked by rioting Chinese fans near the north gate of Beijing Worker's Stadium afterwards, partly provoked by controversial officiating and anti-Japanese sentiment resulting from historical tensions. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/3541380.stm

Japan's 3-1 victory was surrounded by a controversial second goal, where Japanese player Nakata appeared to have touched the ball with his arm after the ball had skipped off Suzuki's head from a corner. China's Dutch coach Arie Haan was unhappy with Kuwaiti referee Saad Al Fadhli for making allegedly wrong calls on all three goals by Japan and in an unusual move, refused to attend the final awards ceremony. Meanwhile, a number of Chinese fans rioted near the north gate of Beijing Worker's Stadium.

Views

Like other sports events, the Asian Cup 2004 contained the aspect of the demonstration of the nation's progress, and it was in fact seen as the prelude of 2008 Summer Olympics. Many Chinese see the tournament as a success and take great pride in having showcased such an important sporting event in advance of the Olympics. However, the Japanese media and many other foreign observers have pointed out what they have perceived as bad manners on the part of Chinese fans, and the sparse attendances so far at the tournament, and have raised questions on China's ability to hold such sporting events.

Through out the tournament, some Chinese fans in the stadia expressed anti-Japanese sentiments by drowning out the Kimi Ga Yo|Japanese national anthem, displaying political banners and booing whenever Japan got the ball, regardless of the opponent. This was reported by the foreign media. The PRC government took action, calling for restraint and increasing police to maintain order, and the Japanese government also asked the PRC for ensuring the safety of Japanese fans, and specifically asked Japanese nationals or people of Japanese origin to not display any form of excessive pride, especially wearing Japan national football team uniforms. Despite the authority's campaign, many media sources have reported a riot by Chinese fans near the north gate of Beijing Worker's Stadium, though it is unclear what the extent of this riot was. As a result, they have said that for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, keeping a "lid on nationalism" has become a cause for concern for Chinese officials.

In addition, it was probably the first time that anti-Japanese demonstrations by the Chinese were extensively broadcast over Japanese media. Consequently, Chinese anti-Japanese sentiment was spotlighted and discussed in Japan.
