OAR gave an interview to a newspaper where he said he hopes Saudi beat UAE in their WCQ and qualify for the WC.

Anyone has the original article in arabic? Wouldn't be surprised if this was a made up news by Iranian medias...
I don't think he would be dumb enough to openly say such a thing

Asia's elite!

Asia's elite!

That's why a talent like him doesn't have a place in Europe: having mentality of a donkey! (apologies if any insult to donkeys btw)

[GolfePersique]

LOL that's literally admitting to match-fixing

I hope Japanese and Aussies monitor this and report to FIFA, as Arab FC is hopeless.

It looks like Korea will be missing Ki, Son, and Koo for their final WCQ's. That is a huge hit.

Definitely does not help their situation, but now that Stielike is gone they should be playing better football.

Those players play horribly versus TM. If anything they'll play better now with players who want to prove themselves.

Very interesting situation over in the other group with Japan, Australia and KSA fighting it out. Japan is leading the table now, but they may be in trouble!

First, Japan has to face Australia. not an easy game at all. If they win this game, unfortunately, they will help KSA's cause and therefore I am hoping for a tie in this game.
On the last day, Japan have to go to Saudi Arabia, in that hot weather, and potentially facing a must win situation (assuming they didn't get the 3 points against Australia). On the other hand, the Saudis, already counting the 3 points of UAE game, could be leading the table if Japan and Australia tie their game. Now if Japan beats Saudi in the last game and assuming that Australia will handle Thailand on the last day, KSA would go from top of the table to Playoffs, on the last match day, and at home!!! Now that's something I am willing to pay to watch!
either way, I think Japan's last two games will be very exciting matches.

easily their best players by way and far, would be the equivalent of us floating azmoun and alireza before a big game. They've been leaking goals against nearly every side we have no excuses not to score v them

[Mr.Click]

Definitely wrong. Russia as host will be seeded regardless of their ranking.

can you imagine Qatar in the same position in 5 years?
"facepalm"

If they are still host it will happen. Look at the US in 1994, Japan and South Korea in 2002 and South Africa in 2010.

LOL AT PEOPLE WHO THINK OAR has any talent.

Stepovers dont make you good.

These comments just show UAE's mickey mouse mentality.

Guarantee the guy would get wrecked in any top5 league. Would probably only make it in a relegation Ligue 2 side.

OAR has a big bark but a teensy tiny bite

[pajamNL]

Its that the same Oar who played 4-5 season in The Netherlands (FC Utrecht) and managed to score a total of 7 goals
