    Head to head, we lost to Australia and they have a better goal difference. Why on earth does their performance against Qatar get discredited? This format makes no sense. Australia clearly had the best result in the group.

      excellent point. That’s why I think the route guys like Sardar, JB, Ezzie, Rostami took is the way to go. Once you turn 18, go to Europe and play in some small country, or sign a u21 contract with a bigger club. Cut your teeth there for a couple of years and then look for a bigger move by the time you are 23/24. It so sad to see a guy like Barzegar come back home so quickly. The kid is still so young AND TALENTED, but is going to get wasted in the IPL.
      The problem isn't that Europe don't treat them well either : few offers, specially from adequate teams/leagues, few chances given, no scouting. If the player doesn't have offer, he should count on IPL to get developed a little bit at a young age before some euro offer arrives

        They lost against Vietnam and beat the weakest team which was already eliminated.
        In every group, it is counted like that

          That route won’t always work. How many opportunities Barzegar had last season? Zenit 2 trial, Kairat trial w/ Berdyev, and finally Belarus where nothing happened either. And now sitting on bench at bottom of ipl. So where does he go from here?

            In a 3 way tie on points, that's how it's done sometimes. Essentially the result against Qatar was thrown away.

              "This is a totalitarian system whose presence people feel in their blood and in their flesh on a daily basis. And it’s one that does not grant freedoms of any kind, or accommodate people’s demands in any way. What is increasingly clear is that there is clear demand for change in the regime. What the people want is regime change, and no return to the past. There is a very real possibility of regime change." - Nasrin Sotoudeh

                watched some of the game on replay ...
                it's praiseworthy that boys seem intent on moving the ball via passing (rather than too much bodo bodo va khoreh-bazi, which is most common amongst younger footballers), however Poor Movement W/O the ball and some horrid touches and way too frequent inaccurate and piss-poor weighted passes are killing our flow ..!!
                still we often show good team structure in possession and w/o it, which is commendable job of the coaching crew..!!

                still there are times when facing pact defenses where we would need our boys to take on their immediate markers off dribble in order to create a dangerous opening on the opponents goal ..... similar to how we scored the 2nd goal today where the guy with the assist imo, should be rewarded with the most praise for the goal that broke the game for us..!!

                who do we face in the next round ...? we know yet..? when is it..? kiri middle of am times again..?

                  I am very worried about the possibility the FIFA draw include Iran and Israel in the same U-20 world cup group.

                      Iraq drew Syria, so we will face Iraq in the quarterfinal, just 1 game away from a spot in the u20 WC

                        The chance of that will be 1:6 = 16,67%

                        If we end up qualfying we'll be for sure not in the same pot as Israel. They are guaranteed to be in pot 4. We would be probably in pot 3.

                        The chance having Israel in our group would increase if an Asian team makes it that did not qualify for any editions from 2011 onward. That team could end up in pot 4 and the chance of getting Israel would increase to 1:5 = 20%

                          Damn too bad Indonesia didn't beat Uzbekistan, it would have given us an extra chance even if we would have lost the next game

                                Everything is going according to plan so far. We won the group (as expected) and the Australia loss didn't mean a damn thing.
                                Remember both Spain & Argentina had a loss in the GS before going on to win the WC, our boys can do the same in AC.

                                However, the boys are still playing at only 40-45% of what they're are capable of. We need at least 60-65% to comfortably beat Iraq.
                                The real tournament starts in the semifinals.

                                Hopefully our boys can keep their composure throughout this tournament and play better with each game.

                                Our boys are good enough to win this tournament.
