Yes first goal was a measured shot from outside the box across the face of goal.

Taremi--> Cant
Azmoun--> Cant
Ghaedi--> Cant
Ezatolahi--> Cant
Jahanbakhsh--> if he winds up quickly enough maybe
Ghoddos--> see Jahanbakhsh
our CBs--> no way.

Only person I can think of is Karim Bagheri

Nekounam and Teymourian and Nourollahi have that in their repertoire.

Despite the score this Yemen team isn’t bad at all. They unfairly lost to Uzbekistan and the red card today wrecked them. Before the red they broke through our middle and caused a lot of trouble.

we still have not been truly challenged yet and I think both Iran and Uzbekistan will play less hard in their final group game.

there are quite a few decent players in this group so don’t crap all over them if we get knocked out in the QFs.

I watched the full game and I was really impressed by this super tall Mobin Deghan kid who was at CDM. He was serving some really nice prime Kanaani long balls and passes. You can see it in a few of the goal highlights.

Yeah I've seen Nourallahi do that against Arab teams 🤣

I was saying along the lines of what Arj42 meant in the context of a high pressure game like a WC or AC game.

I can only recall Teimourian's goal for Esteghlal vs Buriram, I'll give you that. I havent seen Nourollahi do that outside of PGL and Arabs

Dont remember Nekounam with any bangers from outside funnily I only remember his set piece goals,headers and poacher finishes.

I've seen Ezatolahi hit the post a bunch.

I'm not counting Cheshmi's Wales goal because this one actually crossed the face of goal but still went in. Thats a lot of technique.

Asia was shken with 6 0 earthquake today

Esteghlal sepahan geryeh nakun
Yaman ham 6 tayeee shood.

.....
when yaman had 11 players they had us in a GHOOTI, but 6 goals was nice.


tonight Japan vs syria and korea vs thail is important to see what result we need vs Uzbekistan.

Here’s nekounam banger.

Why comparing little kids who probably end up in azadegan to our legends? Agha javad played almost 10 years in spain. He can do a lot of things these kids in diapers can’t.

BTW our U17 lost 0-2 to Kazakhstan in friendly

The idea is for our new kids to emulate our legends and not the players we currently have in TM that you like so much....

Not putting our legends down, more a slight on our current team.

Nice goal by Nekounam I stand corrected

[oracle]

the pgl rule of all pgl teams must include 2 u23 players for each game roster , WE START SEEING BLOSSOM right away in our u20 team.
this rule won't help u17 team but it be massive for u20, and 23. LETS NOT FORGET HOW BANING FORIGNER GOALI IN PGL was responsible for so many goalies coming up asap.

I keep watching the first goal against Yemen and laughing my ass off. I have watched every single senior TM game in last long time and I truly can’t think of a long distance strike as good as this one. How on earth is it that when our main team shoots the ball, it either goes to nasa or it bounces up and down off the ground or moves at 2km per hour. This is just wild. Cheshmi strike was not at all as clean as this one and Ahmad noor doesn’t do it in competitive game

Andarz has not started either of the two games if I’m not mistaken and he looks a bit Sardar-like (aka chubby). He’s been the prospect I’ve been most excited about in the past few years. Does anyone know what’s happening with him? Is it the coach’s strategy to rotate players now to save them for knockout round or is he having fitness issues?
