This was an excellent comeback performance by team melli against the toughest team in the group who had 12 players (UAE plus the ref).
In spite of GN's flaws, I thought he coached an excellent game with a very good starting lineup. We have to give credit to where it's due.
I am a fan of GN's idea of playing from the back, possession football, Saman as a central midfielder, even Taremi so far as an attacking midfielder is working well. However, he HAS to play more defensive against Japan/SK or else we will get smoked.
If he makes the proper defensive adjustments against those type of teams, the trophy will be ours.
