The "only Asian country to advance to the semifinals" hint may be a little ambiguous. Turkey made it to the semifinals in 2002, too. An Asian country, but part of UEFA and thus plays in the European qualification groups, I guess?

I think 'finals' should be changed to 'final' in the last hint.

Nice, could do with being a little more difficult.

Can I suggest another question

Which European country have qualified for the finals eight times but never made it past the first round.
