AFC Asian Cup Winners List Table As 14 developing nations played in the first edition with 18 teams nominated, the AFC Cup was established in 2004 as a secondary competition to connect back to the AFC Champions League.

Teams from West and Central Asia made up Groups A, B, and C, while East and South East Asia made up the other two groups. The winners and the top three finishers would then go to the knockout round, where the opponents were chosen at random. Al-Jaish won the first AFC Cup by defeating Al-Wahda, a rival team from their native Syria, on away goals.

Nine different countries sent 18 teams to compete in 2005, however each nation was still permitted to send one or two teams.
