You guys think Iraq can upset SK in the R16?

Iraq is always a hard nut for us to crack ( the first leg of wcq 2022 when we won 3-0 aside) but i rather face them 11 times of 10 in a QF instead of SK

Iraq can upset them .stadium will be pro Iraq as well.

I think KSA WILL GO MINIMUM SEMI ,max final and if tm is not in final with them ksa will win it all. Reasons
1.they always get hot at right time for ac.
2.Fifa is behind them this time since they got awarded the wc.
3.they playing almost at home.
4.afc love to see ksa walk away with trophy
5.they have spent so much on their soccer it be good for their investment.

Only team can beat them is tm ,they only can meet in the final.

We barely ever got scored on with cq

TM lost 15% of the 103 games under CQ. It won 59%. We had four times the odds of winning to losing. Not good enough for some members.

Iraq 0 - 1 South Korea

South korea played 45 minutes with their first team. Son , Hwang , Kim all subbed in 46th minute 2nd half.

Friendly games don't mean anything I personally think SK is better than this.

They first have to find their way out of group D. Vietnam will give them a good run for their money.

That said, it is better for us if Iraq faces S Korea than Vietnam .. at least there will be a chance for upset. Vietnam always comes short of beating east Asian super powers.

That may be the case but ball is round and can go in any direction.

Dudes, Korea’s tactics whatever is left from Bento area.

Klinsmann is a bum coach. He just yells
motivational phrases. He’s been blessed with the best Korean team in history yet spends all his time in California.

It’s the most important advantage we have against them.

yes you are right , he is like a motivational speaker with an athletic trainer mindset..


Klinsmann, main tactics is psychical fitness and Endurance, he wants the team to run for 90 minutes…

Klinsmann is not some super intelligent tactician , he has a very simple approach, out run the opposition and do all the simple things better than the opponent….


this Korean team will just out hustle everybody else they’re not gonna surprise you so all we have to do is match their, intensity level, not lose our endurance for 90 minutes or 120 and make sure to capitalize on the chance we create , if we can shut down their main threats and score goals on them we will win this

Klinsmann doesn’t have any surprises up his sleeve , so hopefully the coaching staff we have under and prepare , accordingly

To spread of positive vibes before the tournament, interesting that Argentina had the oldest squad at the 2014 World Cup and they went all the way to the final. Maybe we do the sane

I would have gladly had 40% win instead it meant winning the important games. Bosnia, Japan, Portugal, USA were all lost because of his installed mentality.

True that!

Yes SK will have a harder time facing Iraq than Vietnam because of their physicality, Vietnam is a Wish version of SK whit same type of play and physicality, thats why east asian teams always struggles against more physical teams.

I remember last AC 2019 when Japans captain said before the Iran game that Irans physicality is like facing a european team and its really hard to play against, to bad they played against kaananis brain that game and not our team physicality, i really thought that we would become champions that year.

If GN knows the dark arts our players could also emulate them to make the game in our favour. Avoid letting Korea build momentum, break up the play when necessary, prevent any rhythm from building.

We already know that pisses Klinsmann off from WC game with Wales so we can just piss him off more and force him to make mistakes

I’m sure we could. We played a lot of friendlies.

We should have won that AC in 2019. But that imbecile CQ decided to suddenly play defensive and only long balls to Azmoun vs Japan.

That Japan team had not done anything in the tournament, but was treated like Brazil by CQ lol.

You are like a jukebox stuck on repeat brother.
