2020 AFC U-19 Championship qualification
The 2020 AFC U-19 Championship qualification was an international men's under-19 football competition which was originally held to decide the participating teams of the 2020 AFC U-19 Championship. The AFC announced the cancellation of the final tournament due to the COVID-19 pandemic on 25 January 2021.
Of the 47 AFC member associations, 46 teams entered the competition.
The draw was held on 9 May 2019 at the AFC House in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The teams were seeded in each zone according to their performance in the 2018 AFC U-19 Championship final tournament and qualification (overall ranking shown in parentheses; NR stands for non-ranked teams). The following restrictions were also applied:
Players born on or after 1 January 2001 were eligible to compete in the tournament.
In each group, teams played each other once at a centralised venue. The eleven group winners and the four best runners-up qualified for the final tournament. As Uzbekistan (who were the designated final tournament hosts) were among the four best runners-up, the fifth best runner-up also qualified for the final tournament.
Teams were ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss), and if tied on points, the following tiebreaking criteria are applied, in the order given, to determine the rankings (Regulations Article 9.3):
Due to groups having a different number of teams, the results against the fifth-placed teams in five-team groups were not considered for this ranking. Uzbekistan had already qualified as hosts of the final tournament.
