Former Perth Glory boss Bernd Stange has reportedly become the second coaching casualty of the Asian Cup.

Arabic football blog Ahdaaf and podcast The Asian Game both tweeted the German had been axed by Syria following Wednesday's 2-0 defeat to Jordan in Al Ain.

The loss leaves Syria with just one point from two games in Group B ahead of a clash with Australia in Al Ain on Tuesday.

AAP has sought confirmation from the Syrian FA but it's understood the 70-year-old has been replaced by Ayman Hakeem for the remainder of the tournament.

Hakeem led Syria during the qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup, where Syria reached the regional playoff before losing to the Socceroos.

Jordan's win means Syria need to defeat Australia to have any hope of qualifying to the tournament's knockout stages.

Stange, who coached the Glory between 1998 and 2000, is the second coach sacked in less than a week in the tournament after Thailand dumped Milovan Rajevac following a 4-1 loss to India last Sunday.

Rajevac was replaced by Sirisak Yodyadthai, who was at the helm on Wednesday as the Thais bounced back with a 1-0 win over Bahrain in Dubai.
