World Cup Qualifier: China - Iran; Info, Updates and Live Reports (06.09.2016)

[teammelli91]

One thing I love about our team under Carlos is the fact they are mentally stronger than before. They are more confident.

I know people can fake smiles and nervously laugh. But looking at the photos from the press conference and the ones taken from inside the stadium now, I can tell our boys are relaxed and ready.

They know the pressure is on China's back and Carlos' plan is to take advantage of the pressure and boost our player's confidence.

If Milad can play lb then hajsafi would get limited time as midfield he prefer Ashkan and he has torabi shojayi jahanbaksh no place for hajsafi

Ashkan is out, injured!

[Doctor DOOM]

Carlos putting his full trust in Pouraliganji just as he did against Bahrain when Pejman was out injured.

Carlos also putting his full trust in Milad to start his first ever SERIOUS Team Melli match. A match AWAY from home.


24 minutes to go gentlemen

It's more about him recognizing Chinese players' pace.

Mohamadi, PAG, .. are all to keep pace with the Chinese. Good call by CQ

[teammelli91]

I have a very good feeling about this match guys

Is the YouTube link for the Iran game on yet? Because for me it's only the Iraq game as of yet? Just trying to make sure that I'm not behind .

pretty decent line-up..!! i suppose some of the changes were inevitable rotations due to successive games and short rest period..!
I hope PAG performs well today, he is trying to Fill some big shoes in absence of Hossaini

glad to see MiMo starting over HS
Woulda much preferred Torabi over Amiri
Ezzai been playing way too many big games of late for club and country..! he seemed bit off the pace in Gutter's game, perhaps Omid coulda been brought on today..?but then again with Ashkan missing due to injury and less physical Shojaee replacing him, CQ couldnt afford to line-up another lightweight MFdr and opted for Saeed again..!
2pacy wingbacks were necessities to counter the chinese fast paced attackers, so Rezaiean feature makes sense again and i suppose Vouria hasnt quiet gotten up to speed yet since his last layoff..!!

shojaee should be able to provide us with much needed creativity and offensive spark as we badly lacked any sort of attacking service for Sardar vs the Gutteries..! He has been probably the most inconsistent performer ever in TM shirt..!! lets hope the good massoud shows up today, he has been in good club form it seems which is very encouraging ..!! not so sure he could deal with Chinese attacking speed and be much of a help defensively though..!!?

The excitement keeps us awake and makes us forget about sleep lol.
