The draw for the group stage of the AFC Cup-2022 took place at the headquarters of the Asian Football Confederation in Kuala Lumpur, following which the Turkmen clubs “Altyn Asyr” and “Kopetdag” recognized their rivals.

Like last year, two groups were formed in the new AFC Cup in the Central Zone - one group of 4 teams, and the other group of 3 teams.

The six-time champion of Turkmenistan, who finished fourth in the country's top league “Kopetdag” last season, will compete in Group “F”. The rivals of the team of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Turkmenistan will be the clubs "Dordoi" (Kyrgyzstan) and "Khujand" (Tajikistan).

The eight-time reigning champion of Turkmenistan “Altyn Asyr” will play in Group “E”. The team of the Agency "Turkmenaragatnashyk" will play against the clubs "Nasaf" or "Sogdiana" (Uzbekistan), “CSKA” (Tajikistan) and "Neftchi" (Kyrgyzstan).

The best teams of the groups will play in the AFC Cup-2022 zonal final, the winner of which will receive a ticket to the next round of the tournament and 100 thousand USD.

It should be noted, that if Karshi “Nasaf” enters the group stage of the AFC Champions League-2022 in the AFC Cup-2022, the silver medalist of the championship of Uzbekistan Jizzakh “Sogdiana” will perform. If “Nasaf” fails to qualify for the Champions League group stage, they will continue their performance in the AFC Cup-2022.
