U-23 Championship (2015 WAFF)

شوک جدید به اردوی امیدها در دوحه نیمه نهایی امیدها قرع کشی می شود! با وجود قطعی شدن صعود ایران به نیمه نهایی غرب اسیا اعضای این تیم امروز صبح با شوک جدیدی در خصوص رقابت های نیمه نهایی روبرو شدند.

به گزارش "ورزش سه" امیدهای ایران بعد از نتایج رقم خورده در گروه اول این رقابت ها صعودشان به مرحله نیمه نهایی قطی شد چه به عنوان تیم نخست چه به عنوان بهترین تیم دوم گروه ها به همین خاطر پیش بینی می شد سایه اضطراب و استرس که روی سر اردوی تیم ملی به خاطر شایعه تغییر قوانین سایه افکنده بود از بین برود اما هنوز چند ساعتی از این اتفاق خوشایند نگذشته بود که صبح امروز در حاشیه صرف صبحانه در هتل هالیدی ویلا خبر دیگری به گوش اعضای تیم امید رسید مبنی بر این که قرار است برنامه مرحله نیمه نهایی هم دستخوش تغییر شده و تیم ها با قرعه کشی رقبای خود را بشناسند. این شایعه که باعث بهت و حیرت اعضای تیم امید شده بود دوباره نگرانی هایی را رقم زد چون احتمال این که در نیمه نهایی ایران به قطر میزبان یا عربستان بخورد وجود دارد. پیش از این در برنامه بازی ها نحوه برخورد تیم ها در نیمه نهایی تعیین شده بود اما حالا قرار است این مرحله قرعه کشی شود .

That can't be true ,Draw is for a specific scenario ( Saudi 2:0 Bahrain).

A1 X B2( best 2nd)
B1 X C1
If Saudi win by 3 goals today:
Qatar X Iran
Saudi X Syria( UAE)
If Saudi did not win by a goal or tie , Saudi is Out of Semi.
Draw is only if Saudi win by 2 goals over Bahrain. In such case to decide group top between Iran and Saudi draw is needed.
It seems U23 team officials are not so smart to look at regulation and do the math.
If Saudi 2:0 Bahrain

A draw is needed for selection of rank while both advance.
Group B

Pos.	Team	GP	Pts	W	D	L	GF	GA	+/-
1	Iran U23	2	4	1	1	0	4	2	2
2	Saudi Arabia U23	2	4	1	1	0	4	2	2
3	Bahrain U23	2	0	0	0	1	0	2	-2

Merci in advance 😬

Saudi 3-2 Bahrain Iran gets first place

For those who think Iran should stay in waff, please watch the penalty given to the Saudis in the 90th minute when they were up 2-1. If that horrible penalty wasn't given, Iran would have came first by goal difference. Luckily Bahrain scored in the 94th minute right after the penalty.

Saudi 3-2 Bahrain
I guess it was a very physical game ( 6Yellow card for each , 1 red card for SA)

Iran should win over Syria. Only strong players i saw from Syria team were # 9 & #13

It seems Yemen advanced as the best runner-up ! not KSA

but there are so many "ifs" , Palestine beat Jordan and will finish 3rd in Group A, since "apparently" they consider head to head results first. now if we remove Jordan results, Yemen beat PLE 3-1 and drew Qatar 0-0. which means they have better GD than KSA !

Runner up ranking. Yemen is in 3rd place.

Saudi Arabia	2	1	1	0	5	4	+1	4
United Arab Emirates	2	1	0	1	5	5	0	3
Yemen	2	0	1	1	1	3	−2	1

This Team will Choke under Khakpoor and Mayeli Kohan in Olympic qualification games later on. The quality of coaching for this team is sub-par.

Although Saudi Arabia is uncle to nephew Bahrain, they don't seem to mix their family ties in sports.

In 2009 Bahrain eliminated Saudi Arabia in the 2010 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers.

It's almost funny this little rivalry. Technically Bahrain is Iran's property. Lets not forget that.

But they are an evil stepchild of Iran.

Runner up ranking. Yemen is in 3rd place.

Saudi Arabia	2	1	1	0	5	4	+1	4
United Arab Emirates	2	1	0	1	5	5	0	3
Yemen	2	0	1	1	1	3	−2	1

oh yea but if you consider Jordan as 3rd place team in Group A, but in fact Palestine finished 3rd in hat group since they beat Jordan and head to head results count

and we will plan Yemen in semifinal and not Group C winner, since Qatar and Yemen can't play each other once again in semifinal.

Saudi got eliminated because it's head to head so Yemen is through. Now they're trying to use a behind the scenes lobby to go through and have Iran eliminated.

We should stay in waff though

Dear
What part of this comparison you don't understand?
Even if we ignore Group A 4 teams versus B 3 teams.


Group A
Country - Games-W-T-L-GF-GA-GD-Points

Qatar	3	2	1	0	5	1	+4	7
Yemen	3	1	1	1	4	4	0	4
Jordan	3	1	0	2	4	4	0	3
Palestine	3	1	0	2	2	6	−4	3

Yemen 4 points & +0 G


Group B

IR.Iran	2	1	1	0	4	2	+2	4
Saudi Arabia	2	1	1	0	5	4	+1	4
Bahrain	1	0	0	1	0	2	−2	0

Saudi 4 points +4 Points & 1 G



If adjusted according to the rule then Yemen scores against Palestine will be ignored ( Yemen beat Palestine 3-1) .
Yemen 1 points &-2G

As you can see Yemen can not be selected as a best 2nd team unless Waff official ignore their own stated rules and hand pick Yemen.

[peiman92]

No you are wrong St_mark. Because of head to head Palestine finish above Jordan. That means Yemen's lose against Jordan is not counted(since group A has four teams) . Yemen then has 4 points and +2 GD
