WE NEED TO UP THE GOAL DIFFERENTIALS
YOU KNOW THESE BASTARDS GONNA GIVE UP AT LEAST 4 GOALS TO GUTTERIES

[Karimi 8]

Reza missed a "offside" breakaway, then had a nice volley.Bahrain is resorting to fouling. Still want Azmoun in for him. Dejagah is holding too damn long on the ball!

[Kiarash]

If it comes down to goal difference who will end first in the group then either one of the Arab teams will sell out to UAE

[TheBoss]

we want sardar and Jahanbaksh, come on CQ

[O-ZoNe]

Not gonna lie, Iran played horribly almost the entire half. It sounds awful but Bahrain outclassed us on some occasion providing a few of the only good attacking opportunities of the game for either side. Hope this was just the nerves of the first game of the tournament and we pick up form after this game. Great way to end the half though with Hajsafi's lightening of a shot.
I never had anything against Shojaei, but I think I realize why he's not so popular. Most successful teams have a strong attacking mid that organizes attacks and is flashy but gets things done. I think Shojaei's issue is that while he doesn't play badly, he just struggles a bit at providing that idealized attacking mid we crave.
On another note, does anyone think that Iran's attempt at attacking football was horrendous with all those stupid long over the top balls at the beginning. I'm no expert but even my u10 coach used to tell me "pass and move, and don't rush the play".
P.S: Bahrain's players didn't seem to play too dirty and seemed pretty friendly except for that one sob Ali guy playing in the middle out on the left kept on fouling and complaining. Needs to get a yellow and settle himself down.

At worst, Iran and Bahrain were 50-50 first half. Even I as a very harsh critic of CQ and IFF, will admit that I think we outclassed Bahrain. We will improve as the tourny goes on.
Ps. Give my regards to the Al Khalifa family...lol kidding

Our attacking midfield is so empty.

Iran is a 1-0 team, sadly.
And please CQ, make some subs!
