The AFC–OFC Challenge Cup was a football tournament, set up as the successor of the discontinued Afro-Asian Cup of Nations. It was a biannual event, with Oceania represented by the winners of the OFC Nations Cup and Asia alternately by the winners of the AFC Asian Cup and those of the Asian Games. It is staged as a home and away format.[1]
The cup was first played with Japan beating Australia 3–0 in 2001.[2]
