Madjer himself knows about the level and quality of Team Melli. He played against Team Melli back in 1991 and knows that Algeria only manage to win the Afro-Asia Cup based on away goal rule. They lost to Team Melli 2-1 in Tehran and won 1-0 in Algeirs so based on the goal they had scored in Tehran they were declared winners. Snubbing Team Melli for a friendly is purely being envious and he wants to ensure Algeria does not get trashed by the Mighty Cheetahs
Reg. Panama friendly: I called the stadium in Graz where the game is supposed to happen. The contact person told me that there are negotiations, but nothing has been confirmed yet. He told me that by mid next week there will be a final decision. Basically, the organizer of these kinda friendlies in Austria is IFCS (International Football Camp Styria). So it's their job to talk to different venues. I also called IFCS, but the responsible person is back in office on Monday. I hope to have updates by early next week then. Anyway, nothing has been confirmed yet regarding date, time and venue, but there are negotiations.
If one or both matches get cancelled, CQ and Team Melli should BOYCOTT the Europe training camp, and DO NOTHING.....just boycott this "shitty program" to point out that they won't continue this way..

Guys i know we have all been snake bitten by the numerous TM friendly cancelations in the past , but this time around things are different
Both the Panama and Venezuela matches have been contracted and confirmed by all parties involved
I can say this time we have a good friendly's and prepair for the World Cup 2018 than in 2014 and the past 2006 we play only Croatia and amateurs of Switzerland and we go to Germany 2006.
I am happy because this means we will do better at the World Cup stage.
I cannot find anythink yet on the site of GelreDome Arnhem? We can visit this game ornot? It will be showing in the dutch/german tv?
I want to go Arnhem on 13 november bit where we must buy our tickets?
And why we not play The Netherlands and Belgium or Germany?
