Round of 16 other teams chat - Not Iran's

[oracle]

sorry for going off topic but can someone tell me why there is not a third place match?

only tournment 3rd place match I think
Is Copa america

[Rezzy]

Or Shias in general (Arabs don't hate Afghanis or Tajiks), look at this tweet by an Iraqi that went viral.

This is from an Iraqi journalist.

"Today I confirmed that no one loves Iraqis among Arabs
And everything you hear from them is hypocrisy
Neither Qatari nor Saudi nor Palestinian nor Jordanian nor Omani nor any nationality
No one loves Iraq except Iraqis #شكراً_اسود_الرافدين
Because you were the reason for exposing their hypocrisy"

(off topic from football) one thing to point out is Iraqis have always felt betrayed by Arab leaders .
iraqi sanctions post 1991
Approval of removing Saddam
funding sectarian war post 03
Funding of isis

- also worth mentioning how most Sunnis in Arab countries despise Iraqi Shias

Let's take a moment to appreciate the top notch stadiums and facilities Qatar has provided for this tournament. 10/10!

Sorry but Qatar completly riiiid with their stadiums. Iran/syria, sk/bahrain..in a super small old stadium while al bayt used for a tokhmi group stage game (india/syria), lusail hardly used

[Kian H]

They probably dont use Lusail because it wont be full. Its better to use a smaller stadium then. Or Else it Will just seem dead. None of the stadiums are sold out, so it doesnt make sense to use Lusail.

All the stadiums are Nice, modern and have Great pitches. I have Been there, I seen it

[Kian H]

Lets hope Japan wont win comfortably. It Would be Great if they have to use to some energy. Extra time Would be perfect

[webmaster]

The speed of the Japs is just way over the Asian teams... I hope we can slow them down or God help us.

[PSGman#19]

Iraq fk us up by sending japan in our side. Their speed is so scary for our overraged/ slow squad.

Lol to bahrain striker, 5m offside but cant finish a 1 vs 1

The venues are usually decided before the teams are drawn so can't really blame that on Qatar.
