"On behalf of the AFC President and the EXCO, I would like to congratulate Football Federation of Sri Lanka for a successful organisation of the AFC Challenge Cup 2010." AFC General Secretary Alex Soosay wrote in a letter to the FFSL CEO Chrysantha Perera.
DPR Korea won the AFC Challenge Cup to qualify for the AFC Asian Cup after beating Turkmenistan 5-4 in a penalty shoot-out after a tense 1-1 draw after extra-time at Sugathadasa Stadium.
AFC has also announced that no team will be given a direct entry into the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup Finals.
Defending champions DPR Korea, runners-up Turkmenistan and third-placed Tajikistan will now have to go through the qualifiers to punch their tickets to the Finals.
