the lebanese idiot in AC04 and williams here in AC15. the world cup ref was just a fraidy cat, not out to get us with an agenda.
but something else too: the winner of the asian cup goes on to play the confederations cup. at a time when we are struggling to find friendlies, and even palestine cancels on us, that experience in playing the world's best would be incredibly invaluable.
could you imagine if iran had won this round, they would have the games against germany, brazil, mexico/usa, uruguay, e.g. holland/italy, nigeria/ghana SET IN STONE in 2017 as warm up for the 2018 world cup?!?
