Iran vs. Uzbekistan Oct. 10th WCQ Match Thread

[Ostad_Goosfand]

99% of iranian diaspora in us and canada will attack team melli with their propaganda if team melli qualifies, unless our camp is in Mexico which is very unlikely,
its going to be a lot of headaches

Yeah it’s gonna be annoying af going to a game and having people scream at you for being an IR supporter. I’ll probably have beer thrown at me for celebrating taremi scoring a goal

[PersianLion80]

Do u want tm participate in the wc?
Yes ?or no ?

100% yes I support tm and the people …can't fault them for living under a despotic monkey led regime that they had nothing to do with

[perspolis#1]

A LOT OF PEOPLE DONT WANT TM IN WC.
MAYBE INSTEAD OF BAN
THEY WANT MAKE SURE TM DONT GO FROM RESULTS.

I think including Ghalenoei.

Give me his phone number please, I need to talk to him.

I can do better job with PFDC selected staff.

Guy played into Uzbekistan's strategy all game

hold your horses, let us make it that far. with the things going on in Iran and Middle East do not be surprised if Iran is banned from Football Altogether. Look what happen to Russia, iran is walking the same line and if thing go south, iran could be kicked out.

Or by then IR regime might be gone...who knows

[Pluto2000]

Yeah that how u get set up for getting your head cut.

We are so dramatic 🤣 lol everyone has so many things they wanna blame except GN.

Look at our situation now, our right back is gonna miss the next game and we have to start a left winger in his place because of his squad selection. This scenario sound familiar to anyone? Who said he learns from his mistakes? lol

I stood up by myself to all of them during the wc matches watching the games in gatherings.
The anti tm crowed who would stay up , come to restaurants spend money and get happy when team melli get score on or get mad at someone like me cheering for tm , are the reason
For mahsa movement failed....BUNCH LIFE BISAVADS WITH DEGREE FROM SCHOOL.

Okay thats fine

Very solid performance defensively against a poor Uzbekistan side but should really have come away with all 3. Dominated possession and totally shut down their star man Shomurodov. We still looked the more likely to score even with 10 but I feel we gave them too much respect and could have committed more in first 60mins.

GN’s 4-4-2 with Mohebbi and JB on the flanks just doesn’t work going forward - there’s no creativity from either of them nor overloads and link up play with Hardani or Mohammadi. Everything becomes reliant on Ghoddos or Ezza playing through passes to break the lines with little angle because of our narrow 4-4-2.

Defence was solid: excellent debut from Nemati and Mohammadi was very good. Ghoddos was superb but Azmoun and Taremi were both off it. Azmoun looks overweight and out of shape and Taremi, as he did in the AC looks complacent, like he thinks he’s better than this level. Holds on the ball for too long and looks sluggish almost through an arrogance to try and slow it down and then beat one player too many.

Ghaedi was good again, gave us so much more balance and creativity going forward. Gholizadeh and Noorafkan also did well and looked lively when they came on.

How are the uzbeks the 2nd best team in this group, they are terrible, even with a man up they couldn't do much. Last 10-15 mins iran dominated them even when iran played crap.

[Ostad_Goosfand]

Some notes

1. this was technically the hardest game in the group for us
2. We played well when we went down to 10 men
3. we got robbed of a penalty
4. GN got the lineup wrong, and continues to get it wrong as long as he plays 2 striker system

It’s so funny to me that ghalenoi had taremi suspended and forced to play 1 striker vs Japan, and won 2-1. And since then he just avoids 1 striker system. It wasn’t luck, it was the extra midfielder. Against Palestine and Hong Kong, go ahead and play 2 strikers. Against anyone else, PLEASE PLAY 1 STRIKER, 2 WING, 3 MIDFIELD

TM played much better with 10 men, not sure if this was a psychological factor or the subs GN made. It seemed like TM had more conviction to win the game after being one man down, especially in the extra time and after the PK being denied.

Ghaedi surely deserves to be in the starting lineup, and Sardar needs to be benched. I think Gholizadeh and Ghaedi changed the flow of the game for the better.

Milad IMHO was another decent player, his contribution to defense and offense was quite fun to watch.

Uzbekistan Unlike what we had pictured them prior to the match did not seem to be as formidable opponents as we thought them to be.

That was a clear Penalty, not sure what made the VAR team to ask the ref to check the scene, and surprisingly call it off. Reminded me of the 2015 Ben William's decision to red card Pooladi against Iraq which cost us the game and elimination from AC.

“” these Australian referees””, , the red was a red , and no matter who was the referee ,,….

clearly showed Hardani is not playing well , and also some of these players are not familiar with VAR….

the penalty , it seemed legit to me no idea why he called if off…


but regardless..

GN has no idea what he is doing , even if you give this guy 10 friendly games and 2 month training camp , he can’t do better than this ,

Team Melli rate limit step is GN , he is the weakest link , no matter what is going on , the coach sucks …

he can’t bench a players like Sardar , who shouldn’t even be in the team …

we 3 played World Cup qualifiers already what has Sardar

krygzystan, UAE , Uzbekistan,,, what has he even done ?!?!?! Not even 1 shot on net ..


the guys that wants to play “noke hamle “ has to the fittest , fastest, sharpest , most ready player on the whole team …

Sardar is 20 pounds over weight , he was tired after 20 minutes…. Why ?!?

So the IRIB commentators said that the ball might have hit Gholi’s hand before hitting the Uzbek defender.

Its really hard to tell if it hit Gholi’s hand or not. In cases where it’s hard to tell, the ref should have ruled for the penalty.

Another injustice against US.

[zereshk-ali]

Intrigued to see who’ll replace Ghoddos against Qatar. Hoping he abandons the 4-4-2 and gives Hosseinnejad a go as the 10. I’d like to see his link up play with Ghaedi coming off the left flank.
