^^^^


Anyway, Denmark has very much qualified for the World Cup now.

Ireland 1 - 3 Denmark
Min '65

Denmark will be in the same pot as Iran (in pot 3)

[Persian-Pride87]

yes Denmark!

Northern Europe/Scandinavia is gonna be well represented this WC with Sweden, Denmark (basically qualified at the time of this post) and Iceland all having qualified.

This World Cup will be a very Nordic World Cup, but also a very Arabic world Cup...


I think there is a record amount of Nordic teams in one World Cup now? Iceland, Sweden, Denmark...

And a record number of Arab teams in one World Cup: Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia...

If Iran wasn't in this World Cup, I would think it sucks.
Nordic countries are even more boring than TM.

Eriksen is so sick... I rate him as high as Modric (though they have different roles).

Very underrated player, his vision is sublime.

Russia 1-1 Iran

Iran = Spain confirmed. Can't argue the math.

Hosseini > Pique

Beiranvand > De Gea

On Belgium's goal, Japan's defense was simply toyed and ridiculed. What kind of defending was that? Japan's football has certainly regressed over the years.

Nigeria looked real dangerous. Even their physics is so intimidating. They gotta be the most physically athletic built team in the WC.

LOL based on these friendlies I believe that if we had a game against the US we'd win with 3 or more goals given their current form and ours.

What do you mean?

I believe he means that by playing Balotelli (like a lot of people we're suggesting here) that Italy would be acting like Qatar with all their foreign national team players.

Because with KC's logic Balotelli is Black, so he cannot possibly be considered Italian enough to play for Italy.
